Progressive side wagers: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker regularly have one of these. You generally place a wager ($1 is the usual amt.) to try to win a side jackpot that could be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Though big jackpots like this are extremely appealing, they’re also very difficult to win. You might need to get a Royal Flush in order to hit this bet. Also, picture this- you play twenty hands and place the side wager every time. That is twenty dollars you should have used towards the actual game wager instead of a sucker wager. Imagine what you could have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds employing that $20.
Single number wagers in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has 2 0’s on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has only 1. This shifts the complete house advantage from 2.63percent with a single zero wheel to a whopping five% in American. The individual number bet has just a one in thirty eight chance of winning, which are very long odds indeed. Bet on even-odd or black-red bets as a substitute which have a much smaller house advantage.
Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you bet on it, the house advantage can be a huge twenty-five percent. No, that isn’t a error. Due to the huge set of numbers you must pick, it is not recommended to play Keno to often. A few times for enjoyment, perhaps. But do not waste all your cash on it or you’ll quickly discover yourself broke.
