Net Casino Sucker Bets — Part Two

Thursday, 31. March 2016

  • Progressive side wagers: Games like Caribbean Stud Poker often have one of these. You generally put a bet (a dollar is the usual amount) to try to win a side jackpot that could reach twenty-five thousand dollars. Although huge jackpots like these are extremely appealing, they are also incredibly hard to succeed. You might need to hit a Royal Flush in order to hit this wager. Also, think about this- you wager 20 hands and make the side wager each time. That’s $20 you should have used towards the real game wager instead of a sucker bet. Imagine what you might have been able to win at a wager with greater odds employing that twenty dollars.
  • Single number bets in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has just one. This shifts the complete casino edge from two% with one zero wheel to a whopping 5% in American. The individual number bet has just a one in 38 chance of winning, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets as a substitute which have a much lower house advantage.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you gamble on it, the casino advantage can be a huge twenty-five percent. Yes, that isn’t a typo. Due to the huge set of numbers you have to choose, it is not recommended to wager on Keno to often. A number of times for enjoyment, maybe. But don’t waste all your cash on it or you’ll immediately find yourself broke.
