Progressive side bets: Games such as Caribbean Stud Poker regularly contain one of these. You usually put a wager (a dollar is the usual amt.) to try to win a bonus jackpot that can reach twenty-five thousand dollars. Although huge jackpots like this are very alluring, they’re also particularly complicated to succeed. You would need to hit a Royal Flush in order to win this wager. Also, imagine this- you wager 20 hands and make the side wager each time. That’s 20 dollars you could have used towards the real game wager in place of a sucker wager. Just think about what you might have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds using that $20.

Individual number wagers in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has 2 zeroes on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has just one. This shifts the complete house advantage from 2.63percent with one zero wheel to a huge 5% in American. The single number wager has just a 1 in thirty eight chance of winning, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets alternately which have a much smaller house advantage.

Keno: Any version of Keno, and regardless of how you gamble on it, the casino edge can be a whopping twenty-five percent. Yes, that is not a typo. Due to the huge set of numbers you have to pick, it is not advisable to play Keno to often. A number of times for entertainment, perhaps. But don’t spend all your money on it or you will quickly find yourself broke.
