Internet poker has become globally acclaimed lately, with televised championships and celebrity poker game shows. Its popularity, though, stretches back in fact a bit further than its television scores. Over the years numerous variants on the original poker game have been developed, including some games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of the above-mentioned games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely related to 21 than traditional poker, in that the gamblers bet against the dealer instead of each other. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is no concealment or other kinds of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to pay up just before the croupier announcing "No further bets." At that point, both you and the casino and of course every one of the different players receive five cards. Once you have observed your hand and the dealer’s initial card, you need to in turn make a call bet or give up. The call bet’s value is akin to your original bet, indicating that the risks will have doubled. Bowing out means that your ante goes directly to the house. After the bet is the conclusion. If the casino doesn’t have ace/king or better, your wager is given back, plus a sum in accordance with the original bet. If the bank has a hand with ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand is greater than the bank’s hand. The dealer pays out chips even with your ante and controlled expectations on your call bet. These odds are:

  • Equal for a pair or high card
  • 2-1 for two pairs
  • three to one for three of a kind
  • four to one for a straight
  • 5-1 for a flush
  • 7-1 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
