Internet Casino Sucker Wagers — Part 2

[ English ]
  • Progressive side bets: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker commonly offer one of these. You usually put a wager (a dollar is the normal amount) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that could reach $25,000. Although huge jackpots like this are particularly appealing, they’re also particularly difficult to succeed. You might have to get a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this bet. Also, think about this- you play twenty hands and lay the side bet every time. That is $20 you should have used towards the actual game wager in place of a sucker wager. Picture what you might have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds employing that $20.
  • Individual number wagers in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 zeroes on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has only 1. This shifts the complete casino advantage from 2% with a single zero wheel to a huge 5.26percent in American. The one number wager has just a 1 in thirty eight chance of succeeding, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets alternately which have a much lower casino advantage.
  • Keno: Any variation of Keno, and anyway you gamble on it, the house advantage can be a whopping 25%. No, that isn’t a typo. Because of the huge set of numbers you must choose, it’s not advisable to wager on Keno very much. A number of times for entertainment, maybe. But don’t spend all your money on it or you’ll immediately find yourself beaten.
