Internet Casino Sucker Bets — Part Two

Thursday, 4. February 2016

  • Progressive side bets: Games such as Caribbean Stud Poker often contain one of these. You typically lay a bet ($1 is the usual amount) to attempt to win a side jackpot that could be upwards of $25,000. Though huge jackpots like this are very appealing, they are also incredibly complicated to succeed. You would have to hit a Royal Flush in order to hit this wager. Also, imagine this- you wager 20 hands and make the side bet every time. That is 20 dollars you could have used towards the real game bet in place of a sucker wager. Picture what you might have been able to win at a bet with greater odds employing that $20.
  • Single number bets in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has two 0’s on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has just one. This shifts the overall house edge from two% with a single zero wheel to a huge fivepercent in American. The single number wager has only a 1 in thirty eight chance of winning, which are very long odds indeed. Bet on even-odd or black-red wagers as a substitute which have a much smaller house advantage.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and regardless of how you gamble on it, the casino edge can be a huge twenty-five percent. No, that is not a typo. Due to the huge set of numbers you have to choose, it is not advisable to bet on Keno very much. A few times for enjoyment, perhaps. But do not waste all your money on it or you will quickly find yourself broke.
