Net Casino Sucker Bets — Part Two
Posted by Shea on May 24th, 2021
Progressive side wagers: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker regularly have one of these. You typically put a wager (a dollar is the usual amt.) to try to win a side jackpot that could reach twenty-five thousand dollars. Though big jackpots like this are very tempting, they’re also particularly hard to win. You would have to hit a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this wager. Also, think about this- you play 20 hands and put the side wager every time. That’s 20 dollars you should have used towards the actual game wager instead of a sucker bet. Picture what you might have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds employing that twenty dollars.
Single number bets in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has two zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has just one. This shifts the complete house advantage from 2% with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5percent in American. The individual number wager has just a 1 in 38 chance of succeeding, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets instead which have a much lower house advantage.
Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you wager on it, the house edge can be a whopping 25%. No, that is not a error. Because of the huge set of numbers you have to choose, it’s not recommended to gamble on Keno to often. A number of times for fun, perhaps. But don’t spend all your cash on it or you will quickly discover yourself bankrupt.
