Online poker has become globally celebrated lately, with televised championships and celebrity poker game events. The games universal appeal, though, stretches back quite a bit further than its television ratings. Over the years numerous types on the original poker game have been created, including some games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of the above-mentioned games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely related to vingt-et-un than traditional poker, in that the gamblers bet against the house rather than the other players. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is little conniving or other kinds of deception. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up prior to the croupier saying "No further bets." At that moment, both you and the dealer and of course every one of the other players receive 5 cards each. Once you have looked at your hand and the bank’s initial card, you need to in turn make a call wager or surrender. The call bet’s amount is equal to your beginning ante, indicating that the stakes will have doubled. Giving Up means that your ante goes immediately to the bank. After the wager is the face off. If the dealer does not have ace/king or better, your bet is given back, with an amount on par with the ante. If the dealer does have ace/king or better, you succeed if your hand defeats the dealer’s hand. The casino pays cash even with your original bet and controlled expectations on your call wager. These odds are:

  • Equal for a pair or high card
  • two to one for two pairs
  • three to one for three of a kind
  • four to one for a straight
  • 5-1 for a flush
  • seven to one for a full house
  • 20-1 for a 4 of a kind
  • 50-1 for a straight flush
  • one hundred to one for a royal flush
