Caribbean Poker Regulations and Hints

[ English ]

Poker has become world celebrated lately, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game events. Its universal appeal, though, arcs back quite a bit farther than its television ratings. Over the years many types on the original poker game have been created, including a few games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling 21 than traditional poker, in that the gamblers bet against the dealer rather than the other players. The succeeding hands, are the established poker hands. There is no bluffing or other types of concealment. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to pay up just before the dealer declares "No more wagers." At that instance, both you and the casino and of course all of the other gamblers receive 5 cards each. Once you have looked at your hand and the bank’s first card, you must in turn make a call bet or give up. The call bet’s amount is equal to your original wager, indicating that the risks will have doubled. Giving Up means that your wager goes instantly to the dealer. After the bet is the face off. If the house doesn’t have ace/king or better, your wager is returned, with an amount equal to the initial bet. If the dealer does have ace/king or better, you succeed if your hand beats the dealer’s hand. The dealer pony’s up money equal to your wager and set odds on your call bet. These expectations are:

  • Equal 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
  • seven to one for a full house
  • 20-1 for a four of a kind
  • fifty to one for a straight flush
  • one hundred to one for a royal flush
