Net Casino Sucker Wagers — Part Two
[ English ]
Progressive side bets: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker often contain one of these. You usually put a wager (a dollar is the normal value) to attempt to win a side jackpot that can reach twenty-five thousand dollars. Though huge jackpots like this are particularly tempting, they’re also very hard to succeed. You might need to get a Royal Flush in order to hit this wager. Also, imagine this- you play twenty hands and put the side bet each time. That is twenty dollars you should have used towards the real game wager in place of a sucker wager. Picture what you might have been able to win at a wager with greater odds utilizing that twenty dollars.
Single number wagers in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has two zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only 1. This shifts the complete house advantage from twopercent with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5% in American. The individual number bet has only a one in thirty eight chance of succeeding, which are very long odds indeed. Bet on 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 advantage can be a huge 25%. Yes, that isn’t a typo. Due to the huge set of numbers you must pick, it isn’t recommended to wager on Keno to often. A couple of times for entertainment, perhaps. But don’t waste all your cash on it or you will quickly find yourself broke.
