  • Progressive side bets: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker commonly offer one of these. You generally lay a bet ($1 is the normal amount) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that could reach $25,000. Although big jackpots like this are extremely alluring, they are also particularly difficult to win. You would need to get a Royal Flush in order to hit this bet. Also, think about this- you play 20 hands and make the side wager every time. That is 20 dollars you should have used towards the real game wager in place of a sucker bet. Just think about what you might have been able to win at a bet with better odds employing that $20.
  • Single number bets in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has 2 0’s on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has just 1. This takes the complete casino advantage from 2percent with one zero wheel to a whopping 5.26% in American. The individual number bet has only a 1 in 38 chance of succeeding, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets instead which have a much smaller casino edge.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and regardless of how you play it, the house edge can be a whopping 25%. No, that wasn’t a error. Because of the huge set of numbers you have to pick, it is not advisable to play Keno very much. A number of times for enjoyment, perhaps. But do not spend all your cash on it or you’ll quickly find yourself bankrupt.
