Progressive side wagers: Games such as Caribbean Stud Poker commonly have one of these. You usually lay a bet (a dollar is the usual amt.) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that could be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Though huge jackpots like this are very tempting, they’re also incredibly difficult to succeed. You might have to hit a Royal Flush in order to win this bet. Also, think about this- you play twenty hands and lay the side wager every time. That is $20 you could have used towards the actual game bet instead of a sucker wager. Picture what you could have been able to win at a wager with greater odds using that 20 dollars.
Single number bets 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 takes the overall casino advantage from 2.63percent with one zero wheel to a whopping 5% in American. The single number bet has only a one in thirty eight chance of winning, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets alternately which have a much smaller casino edge.
Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you bet on it, the casino advantage can be a whopping twenty-five percent. Yes, that is not a error. Due to the large set of numbers you must select, it is not recommended to play Keno to often. A number of times for entertainment, perhaps. But don’t spend all your cash on it or you will quickly find yourself broke.
