Progressive side bets: Games such as Caribbean Stud Poker often offer one of these. You generally put a wager ($1 is the normal value) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that can reach twenty-five thousand dollars. Though big jackpots like this are very tempting, they are also very hard to win. You might need to get a Royal Flush in order to win this bet. Also, imagine this- you play 20 hands and lay the side bet every time. That is $20 you should have used towards the real game wager in place of a sucker bet. Picture what you could have been able to win at a wager with better odds employing that 20 dollars.
Single number wagers in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has two zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only one. This shifts the complete casino edge from 2percent with one zero wheel to a whopping 5percent in American. The single number wager has only a 1 in thirty eight chance of succeeding, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers as a substitute which have a much smaller house advantage.
Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you play it, the house edge can be a huge twenty-five percent. No, that wasn’t a typo. Because of the huge set of numbers you have to choose, it isn’t recommended to wager on Keno very much. A few times for enjoyment, perhaps. But don’t spend all your cash on it or you will quickly discover yourself broke.
