- Proposition bets in Craps: These Craps bets alludes to the fact that you are wagering that a distinct action might develop on the very next toss. For instance, you might make the ‘hard ways’ wager, which means that you’re betting that the shooter will roll a 4, 6, 8 or 10 by rolling a double. These wagers have a casino edge of anywhere from 9.1-11.1%. This is a huge house edge, and it’s very atypical that they hit.

This is a very abnormal occurrence in net baccarat banque, therefore the casino advantage is high. At 14.1% casino advantage, this is the quintisential definition of a sucker bet.
- Insurance wager in Chemin de Fer: Although Blackjack has one of the smallest casino advantages (and there is also a lot of skill required), this is a sucker wager. Depending on how many decks of cards are being used and the table rules, the house advantage of this is at least five %, but can be as great as 14%. Only very experienced card counters are able to make this wager work for them, and more often than not then it remains a sucker wager.
