Web Casino Sucker Wagers — Part Two
Posted by Cooper on November 24th, 2025
Progressive side wagers: Games such as Caribbean Stud Poker regularly contain one of these. You typically lay a bet ($1 is the normal amount) to attempt to win a side jackpot that could be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Although huge jackpots like these are very tempting, they are also very complicated to win. You might need to hit a Royal Flush in order to hit this bet. Also, think about this- you play twenty hands and place the side wager every time. That’s 20 dollars you could have used towards the actual game bet in place of a sucker bet. Just think about what you could have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds using that twenty dollars.
Individual number bets in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has two zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only 1. This takes the complete house edge from 2percent with one zero wheel to a whopping 5.26% in American. The single number wager has only a 1 in 38 chance of succeeding, which are very long odds indeed. Bet on even-odd or black-red bets alternately which have a much lower casino edge.
Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you play it, the house edge can be a huge twenty-five percent. Yes, that is not a error. Because of the large amount of numbers you must select, it’s not advisable to wager on Keno very much. A few times for entertainment, perhaps. But don’t waste all your money on it or you’ll immediately find yourself beaten.
