Net Casino Sucker Wagers — Part Two
[ English ]
Progressive side wagers: Games such as Caribbean Stud Poker often contain one of these. You generally lay a wager (a dollar is the normal amount) to attempt to win a side jackpot that could reach $25,000. Although big jackpots like this are very alluring, they’re also very difficult to succeed. You might need to get a Royal Flush in order to win this bet. Also, think about this- you play 20 hands and put the side bet each time. That’s 20 dollars you should have used towards the real game wager instead of a sucker wager. Imagine what you could have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds utilizing that 20 dollars.
Individual number wagers in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has 2 0’s on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only 1. This takes the overall casino edge from 2% with a single zero wheel to a huge 5.26% in American. The individual number bet has just a 1 in 38 chance of succeeding, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers instead which have a much smaller casino edge.
Keno: Any version of Keno, and regardless of how you bet on it, the casino edge can be a huge twenty-five percent. Yes, that is not a typo. Because of the huge amount of numbers you have to select, it’s not recommended to wager on Keno very much. A number of times for entertainment, maybe. But don’t spend all your money on it or you will quickly discover yourself bankrupt.
