Caribbean Poker Rules and Hints
Poker has become world famous as of late, with televised events and celebrity poker game events. The games popularity, though, arcs back in reality a bit farther than its television scores. Over the years several variations on the first poker game have been developed, including a handful of games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely affiliated with vingt-et-un than traditional poker, in that the players bet against the casino instead of the other players. The winning hands, are the established poker hands. There is no bluffing or different kinds of deceptiveness. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up before the croupier announcing "No more bets." At that moment, both you and the dealer and of course all of the different gamblers acquire five cards. Once you have seen your hand and the bank’s first card, you have to either make a call bet or give up. The call wager’s amount is on same level to your beginning bet, indicating that the stakes will have increased two fold. Surrendering means that your wager goes directly to the dealer. After the bet comes the face off. If the dealer does not have ace/king or greater, your bet is returned, with an amount equal to the initial wager. If the bank has a hand with ace/king or better, you succeed if your hand beats the dealer’s hand. The dealer pays chips even with your original bet and fixed odds on your call bet. These expectations are:
- Equal for a pair or high card
- two to one for 2 pairs
- 3-1 for three of a kind
- 4-1 for a straight
- five to one for a flush
- seven to one for a full house
- 20-1 for a four of a kind
- 50-1 for a straight flush
- one hundred to one for a royal flush
