Net Casino Sucker Bets — Part I

by Yandel on April 20th, 2020

  • Proposition bets in Craps: These Craps bets basically means you’re wagering that a specific action might arise on the next roll. For instance, you may make the ‘hard ways’ wager, which basically means that you are wagering that the shooter will roll a 4, 6, 8 or 10 by rolling a double. These wagers have a house edge of anywhere from 9.1-11.1percent. This is a massive casino edge, and it’s incredibly abnormal that they hit.
  • Tie wager in Baccarat: This is a bet that no one, the dealer or the player will win, but that the hands will tie. This is an extremely rare situation in net Baccarat, therefore the house advantage is high. At 14.1% casino advantage, this is the very definition of a sucker bet.
  • Insurance bet in Blackjack: Although Blackjack has one of the lowest casino advantages (and there is also a ton of skill involved), this is a sucker bet. Relying on how many decks are being used and the rules of the table, the casino edge of this is at least five percent, but can be as big as fourteen %. Only very accomplished card counters can make this bet work for them, and even then it remains a sucker wager.
