- Proposition wagers in Craps: These Craps wagers means you are wagering that a distinct action will arise on the very next toss. For example, you may make the ‘hard ways’ bet, which indicates that you’re wagering that the shooter will toss a four, six, eight, or ten by tossing a double. These wagers offer a house edge of anywhere from nine to eleven%. This is a huge house edge, and it is incredibly abnormal that they hit.
- Tie bet in Baccarat: This is a wager that neither the house nor the player will come away with a win, but that the hands will tie. This is an extremely abnormal occurrence in net Baccarat, therefore the casino edge is high. At 14.1percent casino advantage, this is the quintisential definition of a sucker wager.
- Insurance in Black Jack: Although Blackjack has one of the lowest house advantages (and there is also a ton of ability involved), this is a sucker wager. Depending on how many decks are being played and the table rules, the house advantage of this is at least 5%, but can be as big as 14 percent. Only extremely accomplished card counters can make this wager function for them, and even then it remains a sucker wager.
