Online Casino Sucker Bets -- Part I
- Proposition bets in Craps: These Craps bets means you’re betting that a specific action will arise on the very next roll. For example, you might make the ‘hard ways’ wager, which indicates that you’re betting that the shooter will toss a four, six, eight, or ten by rolling a double. These bets offer a house edge of anywhere from 9.1-11.1%. This is a massive house advantage, and it’s awfully rare that they hit.
- Tie wager in Baccarat: This is a wager that neither the house nor the player will come out on top, but that the hands will tie. This is an exceedingly rare occurrence in online punto banco, therefore the casino advantage is high. At 14.1% casino edge, this is the very definition of a sucker bet.
- Insurance in Black Jack: Although Blackjack has one of the smallest casino advantages (and there is also a ton of talent required), this is a sucker bet. Dependent on how many decks of cards are being employed and the table rules, the casino advantage of this is at least five percent, but can be as great as 14%. Only extremely accomplished card counters are able to make this bet work for them, and even then it is still a sucker bet.
