Web Casino Sucker Bets — Part II

February 5th, 2026 Leave a comment Go to comments
  • Progressive side bets: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker regularly offer one of these. You usually place a wager ($1 is the usual value) to try to win a bonus jackpot that could reach twenty-five thousand dollars. Though big jackpots like these are very tempting, they’re also incredibly complicated to win. You might need to get a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this wager. Also, think about this- you play twenty hands and put the side wager each time. That’s $20 you could have used towards the real game wager instead of a sucker bet. Picture what you might have been able to win at a wager with better odds employing that twenty dollars.
  • Single number bets in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has two 0’s on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has just one. This takes the overall casino advantage from 2.63% with one zero wheel to a whopping fivepercent in American. The single number wager has only a 1 in thirty eight chance of succeeding, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets instead which have a much smaller casino edge.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you wager on it, the casino edge can be a whopping 25%. No, that is not a typo. Due to the huge amount of numbers you have to select, it is not advisable to bet on Keno to often. A number of times for enjoyment, maybe. But do not waste all your money on it or you will quickly discover yourself bankrupt.
