Web poker has become globally celebrated as of late, with televised events and celebrity poker game events. The games popularity, though, arcs back in fact a bit further than its television ratings. Over the years many variants on the earliest poker game have been developed, including some games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of the above-mentioned games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely related to 21 than traditional poker, in that the players bet against the dealer instead of the other players. The winning hands, are the established poker hands. There is no concealment or different types of bamboozlement. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up before the croupier announcing "No further bets." At that instance, both you and the bank and of course every one of the other gamblers are given five cards. Once you have looked at your hand and the bank’s first card, you have to either make a call wager or bow out. The call bet’s amount is akin to your beginning bet, which means that the stakes will have increased two fold. Giving Up means that your bet goes immediately to the bank. After the wager is the showdown. If the casino does not have ace/king or greater, your bet is given back, including a figure on par with the ante. If the bank does have ace/king or greater, you win if your hand beats the casino’s hand. The bank pony’s up cash equal to your original bet and set expectations on your call wager. These odds are:

  • Equal for a pair or high card
  • 2-1 for 2 pairs
  • three to one for 3 of a kind
  • four to one for a straight
  • 5-1 for a flush
  • 7-1 for a full house
  • twenty to one for a four of a kind
  • 50-1 for a straight flush
  • one hundred to one for a royal flush
