Caribbean Poker Regulations and Pointers

Web poker has become globally acclaimed as of late, with televised championships and celebrity poker game events. The games popularity, though, arcs back in fact a bit further than its TV ratings. Over the years many variants on the first poker game have been developed, including a handful of games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely affiliated with blackjack than traditional poker, in that the gamblers bet against the casino instead of each other. The winning hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is no bluffing or different types of bamboozlement. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to pay up prior to the croupier broadcasting "No further bets." At that moment, both you and the house and of course all of the other gamblers are given 5 cards each. Once you have seen your hand and the casino’s first card, you must either make a call bet or surrender. The call wager’s amount is on same level to your beginning ante, meaning that the stakes will have doubled. Abandoning means that your bet goes immediately to the house. After the wager comes the showdown. If the casino doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your bet is given back, plus a sum equal to the ante. If the bank does have ace/king or better, you succeed if your hand is greater than the dealer’s hand. The dealer pays cash even with your bet and fixed expectations on your call wager. These expectations are:

  • Even for a pair or high card
  • two to one for two pairs
  • 3-1 for 3 of a kind
  • four to one for a straight
  • five to one for a flush
  • seven to one for a full house
  • 20-1 for a four of a kind
  • fifty to one for a straight flush
  • 100-1 for a royal flush
