  • Progressive side wagers: Games such as Caribbean Stud Poker regularly contain one of these. You normally place a bet ($1 is the usual value) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that can reach twenty-five thousand dollars. Although huge jackpots like this are very tempting, they’re also particularly hard to win. You might need to get a Royal Flush in order to hit this wager. Also, imagine this- you play twenty hands and make the side bet every time. That is twenty dollars you could have used towards the actual game bet in place of a sucker bet. Just think about what you might have been able to win at a wager with greater odds using that twenty dollars.
  • Individual number bets in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only 1. This takes the overall casino edge from 2percent with one zero wheel to a whopping five% in American. The single number bet has only a one in 38 chance of winning, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets alternately which have a much lower house edge.
  • Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you gamble on it, the house edge can be a huge 25%. Yes, that isn’t a error. Due to the huge amount of numbers you must pick, it’s not recommended to play Keno very much. A number of times for entertainment, perhaps. But do not spend all your money on it or you’ll quickly find yourself bankrupt.
