  • Progressive side wagers: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker regularly offer one of these. You generally place a bet ($1 is the usual amount) to try to win a side jackpot that could be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Although huge jackpots like this are particularly tempting, they are also incredibly hard to win. You would need to get a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this wager. Also, think about this- you wager twenty hands and put the side wager every time. That’s 20 dollars you could have used towards the actual game wager in place of a sucker wager. Imagine what you might have been able to win at a bet with greater odds utilizing that 20 dollars.
  • Individual number wagers in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has two zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has just 1. This shifts the complete house advantage from twopercent with a single zero wheel to a huge 5percent in American. The one number bet has just a 1 in thirty eight chance of succeeding, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers alternately which have a much smaller house advantage.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and regardless of how you bet on it, the casino advantage can be a whopping 25%. No, that is not a error. Due to the large amount of numbers you have to choose, it’s not advisable to bet on Keno to often. A few times for fun, maybe. But do not spend all your cash on it or you will immediately find yourself beaten.
