  • Progressive side wagers: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker often contain one of these. You generally put a bet ($1 is the usual value) to attempt to win a side jackpot that can be upwards of $25,000. Though big jackpots like these are particularly alluring, they are also very complicated to succeed. You would have to get a Royal Flush in order to win this bet. Also, picture this- you wager 20 hands and make the side wager every time. That’s twenty dollars you should have used towards the real game wager in place of a sucker wager. Imagine what you could have been able to win at a bet with greater odds utilizing that $20.
  • Individual number wagers in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has two 0’s on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only one. This shifts the overall casino edge from two% with one zero wheel to a huge 5.26percent in American. The single number wager has just a 1 in 38 chance of succeeding, 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 bet on it, the casino advantage can be a whopping twenty-five percent. No, that isn’t a typo. Because of the huge amount of numbers you must select, it isn’t advisable to bet on Keno very much. A number of times for entertainment, maybe. But don’t waste all your cash on it or you’ll quickly discover yourself beaten.
