Progressive side bets: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker often offer one of these. You generally place a wager (a dollar is the normal value) to try to win a bonus jackpot that can reach $25,000. Though big jackpots like this are extremely alluring, they are also particularly hard to win. You would have to hit a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this bet. Also, picture this- you play 20 hands and place the side bet every time. That is $20 you could have used towards the real game wager instead of a sucker bet. Just think about what you could have been able to win at a wager with better odds utilizing that twenty dollars.
Individual number bets in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has two 0’s on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only 1. This takes the complete casino advantage from twopercent with one zero wheel to a whopping 5.26% in American. The individual number bet has just a 1 in thirty eight chance of winning, which are very big odds indeed. Bet on even-odd or black-red wagers instead which have a much smaller house edge.
Keno: Any variation of Keno, and anyway you gamble on it, the casino advantage can be a huge 25%. Yes, that is not a error. Because of the large amount of numbers you have to choose, it is not advisable to play Keno very much. A couple of times for enjoyment, maybe. But do not spend all your cash on it or you will immediately find yourself broke.
