Progressive side bets: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker often offer one of these. You typically put a wager ($1 is the usual value) to try to win a bonus jackpot that could be upwards of $25,000. Although huge jackpots like this are particularly appealing, they’re also incredibly complicated to win. You would have to hit a Royal Flush in order to win this wager. Also, imagine this- you wager 20 hands and put the side wager each time. That is twenty dollars you could have used towards the actual game bet in place of a sucker wager. Just think about what you could have been able to win at a wager with better odds employing that $20.
Single number wagers in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 zeroes on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has just one. This takes the complete house edge from 2.63percent with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5.26percent in American. The individual number bet has just a 1 in 38 chance of winning, which are very big odds indeed. Bet on even-odd or black-red bets instead which have a much lower house advantage.
Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you gamble on it, the casino advantage can be a whopping twenty-five percent. Yes, that was not a error. Due to the large amount of numbers you must choose, it’s not recommended to play Keno to often. A few times for fun, maybe. But don’t spend all your money on it or you will immediately find yourself beaten.
