Online Casino Sucker Bets — Part II

by Aiden on October 3rd, 2022

  • Progressive side wagers: Games like Caribbean Stud Poker often offer one of these. You normally lay a bet (a dollar is the normal value) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that can be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Although big jackpots like this are particularly tempting, they’re also very hard to win. You would need to hit a Royal Flush in order to hit this bet. Also, imagine this- you wager 20 hands and put the side wager each time. That’s 20 dollars you could have used towards the real game wager in place of a sucker wager. Imagine what you could have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds utilizing that $20.
  • Individual number wagers in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has two 0’s on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only one. This takes the complete house advantage from two% with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5.26% in American. The one number bet has just a one in thirty eight chance of succeeding, which are very long 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 wager on it, the house 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 is not recommended to gamble on Keno very much. A couple of times for entertainment, perhaps. But don’t waste all your cash on it or you’ll immediately find yourself broke.
