Web Casino Sucker Wagers — Part II

by Mauricio on June 10th, 2025

  • Progressive side wagers: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker regularly offer one of these. You usually lay a bet (a dollar is the usual amount) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that could be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Although huge jackpots like these are extremely appealing, they are also very difficult to win. You might have to hit a Royal Flush in order to win this wager. Also, picture this- you play 20 hands and place the side wager each time. That is twenty dollars you should have used towards the actual game bet in place of a sucker wager. Imagine what you could have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds utilizing that 20 dollars.
  • Individual number wagers in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has two zeroes on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has only one. This shifts the complete house advantage from two% with a single zero wheel to a whopping fivepercent in American. The individual number wager has just a 1 in thirty eight chance of winning, which are very big odds indeed. Bet on even-odd or black-red wagers instead which have a much smaller casino advantage.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you play it, the house edge can be a whopping 25%. No, that wasn’t a typo. Because of the huge set of numbers you must choose, it is not recommended to wager on Keno very much. A few times for enjoyment, perhaps. But don’t waste all your cash on it or you will quickly find yourself broke.
