Online Casino Sucker Bets — Part One
Thursday, 31. December 2020
- Proposition bets in Craps: These Craps wagers refers to the fact that you are betting that a distinct thing might happen on the very next toss. For example, you may make the ‘hard ways’ bet, which means that you are wagering that the tosser will roll a 4, 6, 8 or 10 by tossing a double. These wagers have a house edge of anywhere from 9 to 11%. This is a huge house edge, and it’s very rare that they hit.
- Tie bet in Baccarat: This is a wager that neither the croupier or the player will come away with a win, but that both hands will tie. This is an extremely abnormal occurrence in net Baccarat, therefore the casino edge is high. At 14.1percent casino advantage, this is the very definition of a sucker wager.
- Insurance bet in Black Jack: Although chemin de fer has one of the lowest house advantages (and there is also a ton of skill required), this is a sucker bet. Relying on how many decks of cards are being used and the table rules, the house advantage of this is at least five percent, but can be as big as fourteen percent. Only very accomplished card counters can make this wager work for them, and even then it remains a sucker wager.
