Progressive side wagers: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker regularly have one of these. You normally place a wager (a dollar is the usual value) to attempt to win a side jackpot that could reach $25,000. Though big jackpots like these are particularly alluring, they are also particularly hard to win. You might have to hit a Royal Flush in order to hit this wager. Also, picture this- you play twenty hands and place the side wager every time. That’s twenty dollars you could have used towards the real game bet instead of a sucker wager. Imagine what you might have been able to win at a wager with better odds utilizing that $20.
Individual number bets in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has 2 0’s on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has just one. This takes the overall house advantage from 2.63% with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5.26% in American. The one number bet has only a one in 38 chance of succeeding, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets instead which have a much smaller house advantage.
Keno: Any version of Keno, and regardless of how you gamble on it, the house advantage can be a whopping twenty-five percent. Yes, that was not a error. Because of the huge set of numbers you must choose, it’s not recommended to gamble on Keno very much. A couple of times for enjoyment, perhaps. But do not waste all your cash on it or you’ll quickly discover yourself bankrupt.
