Caribbean Poker Rules and Tricks
Online poker has become world celebrated as of late, with televised championships and celebrity poker game events. Its popularity, though, stretches back in reality a bit further than its television scores. Over the years many variations on the earliest poker game have been created, including a handful of games that are not in fact poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely related to twenty-one than old guard poker, in that the gamblers bet against the bank instead of each other. The winning hands, are the established poker hands. There is no concealment or different types of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to pay up before the dealer announcing "No further bets." At that instance, both you and the house and of course all of the other players are given five cards. Once you have seen your hand and the dealer’s first card, you have to either make a call bet or surrender. The call wager’s amount is akin to your beginning wager, meaning that the stakes will have increased two fold. Surrendering means that your ante goes instantaneously to the bank. After the wager comes the face off. If the bank doesn’t have ace/king or better, your wager is given back, including a figure on par with the ante. If the dealer has a hand with ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand is greater than the dealer’s hand. The house pays out cash even with your wager and controlled expectations on your call wager. These odds are:
- Even for a pair or high card
- two to one for 2 pairs
- three to one for 3 of a kind
- 4-1 for a straight
- 5-1 for a flush
- 7-1 for a full house
- 20-1 for a four of a kind
- 50-1 for a straight flush
- 100-1 for a royal flush
