Progressive side wagers: Games like Caribbean Stud Poker commonly have one of these. You usually lay a bet (a dollar is the normal amount) to try to win a bonus jackpot that could be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Although big jackpots like this are particularly tempting, they are also very hard to succeed. You might need to get a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this bet. Also, think about this- you wager twenty hands and place the side bet every time. That’s $20 you could have used towards the actual game wager instead of a sucker bet. Imagine what you might have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds using that twenty dollars.
Single 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 complete house advantage from 2.63% with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5% in American. The individual number bet has just a 1 in 38 chance of succeeding, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets instead which have a much lower house edge.
Keno: Any variation of Keno, and anyway you play it, the house edge can be a whopping 25%. No, that is not a typo. Because of the large amount of numbers you have to pick, it’s not recommended to wager on Keno to often. A few times for fun, perhaps. But don’t spend all your cash on it or you’ll immediately discover yourself bankrupt.
