Web Casino Sucker Wagers — Part II
[ English ]
Progressive side wagers: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker often contain one of these. You usually put a bet ($1 is the usual value) to try to win a bonus jackpot that could reach twenty-five thousand dollars. Although huge jackpots like these are extremely appealing, they’re also incredibly hard to succeed. You might need to hit a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this wager. Also, think about this- you play 20 hands and lay the side bet every time. That’s $20 you should have used towards the actual game wager instead of a sucker bet. Imagine what you could have been able to win at a bet with better odds utilizing that 20 dollars.
Single number wagers in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has 2 zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only one. This shifts the complete casino edge from two% with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5percent in American. The single number wager has only a one in thirty eight chance of winning, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers alternately which have a much smaller casino advantage.
Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you play it, the casino advantage can be a huge twenty-five percent. No, that isn’t a typo. Because of the huge set of numbers you must select, it’s not advisable to wager on Keno very much. A couple of times for fun, perhaps. But do not waste all your money on it or you will immediately find yourself beaten.
