  • Progressive side wagers: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker often have one of these. You generally lay a bet ($1 is the normal value) to attempt to win a side jackpot that could be upwards of $25,000. Though huge jackpots like this are very tempting, they are also incredibly difficult to win. You would have to hit a Royal Flush in order to win this bet. Also, picture this- you wager 20 hands and put the side bet every time. That is $20 you could have used towards the actual game bet in place of a sucker wager. Just think about what you might have been able to win at a wager with better odds employing that $20.
  • Individual number bets in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has two zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has just 1. This takes the overall casino edge from twopercent with one zero wheel to a whopping five% in American. The one number bet has only a one in 38 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 variation of Keno, and regardless of how you wager on it, the house advantage can be a huge twenty-five percent. Yes, that isn’t a error. Because of the large amount of numbers you have to choose, it is not recommended to wager on Keno to often. A few times for fun, maybe. But don’t waste all your money on it or you will quickly discover yourself beaten.
