Online Casino Sucker Wagers — Part One
- Proposition bets in Craps: These Craps wagers means you’re betting that a specific thing will arise on the next toss. For example, you may make the ‘hard ways’ wager, which basically means that you are betting that the shooter will toss a four, six, eight, or ten by rolling a double. These wagers comprise of a casino advantage of anywhere from 9.1-11.1%. This is a huge casino edge, and it’s very abnormal that they hit.
- Tie bet in Baccarat: This is a bet that neither the house or the player will come away with a win, but that the hands will tie. This is a very rare occurrence in online punto banco, therefore the casino edge is high. At fourteen% casino edge, this is the very definition of a sucker bet.
- Insurance bet in Blackjack: Although chemin de fer has one of the lowest house advantages (and there is also a lot of talent involved), this is a sucker wager. Relying on how many decks are being played and the table rules, the house edge of this is at least 5%, but can be as great as 14%. Only very accomplished card counters can make this wager work for them, and more often than not then it is still a sucker bet.
