Progressive side wagers: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker commonly offer one of these. You typically lay a bet ($1 is the usual value) to try to win a side jackpot that could be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Though big jackpots like this are particularly alluring, they’re also very difficult to succeed. You might have to hit a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this bet. Also, think about this- you play 20 hands and put the side wager every time. That’s $20 you should have used towards the actual game bet instead of a sucker wager. Picture what you could have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds employing that twenty dollars.
Individual number wagers in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has two zeroes on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has only 1. This shifts the overall casino advantage from 2% with a single zero wheel to a huge 5.26% in American. The one number bet has only a 1 in 38 chance of winning, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets alternately which have a much smaller house edge.
Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you bet on it, the house edge can be a whopping 25%. No, that isn’t a typo. Because of the huge amount of numbers you have to choose, it’s not recommended to bet on Keno very much. A couple of times for fun, perhaps. But do not spend all your money on it or you’ll immediately find yourself bankrupt.
