Caribbean Poker Rules and Pointers

Web poker has become globally celebrated as of late, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game events. The games universal appeal, though, stretches back in fact a bit farther than its television scores. Over the years many variants on the earliest poker game have been developed, including a handful of games that are not in reality poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely related to vingt-et-un than long-standing poker, in that the players bet against the dealer instead of each other. The winning hands, are the established poker hands. There is no bluffing or other types of deceptiveness. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to pay up before the dealer announcing "No more bets." At that instance, both you and the dealer and of course all of the other gamblers are given 5 cards. Once you have seen your hand and the bank’s 1st card, you must either make a call wager or give up. The call wager’s amount is on same level to your original ante, meaning that the risks will have doubled. Surrendering means that your bet goes directly to the house. After the bet is the face off. If the bank does not have ace/king or better, your wager is returned, including an amount in accordance with the ante. If the bank has a hand with ace/king or better, you win if your hand is greater than the casino’s hand. The house pays out chips even with your original bet and set odds on your call wager. These odds are:

  • Even for a pair or high card
  • two to one for two pairs
  • 3-1 for 3 of a kind
  • 4-1 for a straight
  • five to one for a flush
  • 7-1 for a full house
  • twenty to one for a 4 of a kind
  • fifty to one for a straight flush
  • 100-1 for a royal flush
