Progressive side wagers: Games such as Caribbean Stud Poker commonly contain one of these. You generally put a wager (a dollar is the normal value) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that can reach $25,000. Though huge jackpots like this are particularly appealing, they’re also very difficult to succeed. You would need to get a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this wager. Also, think about this- you play 20 hands and place the side wager every time. That’s twenty dollars you should have used towards the real game bet instead of a sucker wager. Just think about what you might have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds utilizing that 20 dollars.
Single number bets in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 0’s on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has just one. This shifts the complete casino edge from 2% with a single zero wheel to a huge five% in American. The one number wager has only a 1 in thirty eight chance of winning, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers instead which have a much lower casino advantage.
Keno: Any version of Keno, and regardless of how you play it, the casino edge can be a huge twenty-five percent. Yes, that is not a typo. Due to the huge set of numbers you must choose, it’s not recommended to bet on Keno to often. A few times for enjoyment, perhaps. But don’t spend all your money on it or you’ll quickly discover yourself broke.
