• Progressive side wagers: Games like Caribbean Stud Poker often have one of these. You normally put a bet (a dollar is the usual amt.) to attempt to win a side jackpot that could be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Although big jackpots like these are extremely alluring, they’re also particularly complicated to succeed. You would need to hit a Royal Flush in order to hit this wager. Also, picture this- you wager 20 hands and place the side bet every time. That is 20 dollars you could have used towards the actual game bet in place of a sucker bet. Imagine what you might have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds employing that 20 dollars.
  • Individual number bets in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 zeroes on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has just 1. This shifts the overall casino advantage from 2.63percent with one zero wheel to a whopping 5.26% in American. The single number wager has only a 1 in thirty eight chance of succeeding, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers alternately which have a much lower casino advantage.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and regardless of how you wager on it, the casino advantage can be a whopping 25%. No, that isn’t a error. Due to the large set of numbers you have to choose, it is not recommended to wager on Keno to often. A couple of times for entertainment, maybe. But don’t waste all your money on it or you’ll immediately discover yourself bankrupt.
