  • Progressive side wagers: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker regularly contain one of these. You typically lay a bet (a dollar is the normal amt.) to try to win a side jackpot that can be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Though big jackpots like these are extremely alluring, they’re also incredibly difficult to win. You would have to hit a Royal Flush in order to win this bet. Also, imagine this- you play 20 hands and lay the side bet every time. That is 20 dollars you should have used towards the actual game bet instead of a sucker bet. Imagine what you might have been able to win at a bet with greater odds utilizing that twenty dollars.
  • Single number wagers in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 zeroes on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has just 1. This takes the overall house advantage from 2percent with a single zero wheel to a whopping fivepercent in American. The one 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 as a substitute which have a much lower casino edge.
  • Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you play it, the casino edge can be a whopping twenty-five percent. Yes, that wasn’t a error. Due to the huge set of numbers you must choose, it’s not advisable to gamble on Keno to often. A couple of times for fun, maybe. But do not spend all your money on it or you’ll quickly discover yourself beaten.
