Caribbean Poker Regulations and Tricks

Poker has become world celebrated lately, with televised events and celebrity poker game events. Its universal appeal, though, stretches back in fact a bit further than its television scores. Over the years several variations on the earliest poker game have been developed, including a few games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of the above-mentioned games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely affiliated with chemin de fer than long-standing poker, in that the players wager against the bank instead of each other. The winning hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is little concealment or different kinds of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up just before the dealer announcing "No further bets." At that point, both you and the dealer and of course all of the other gamblers are given 5 cards each. After you have looked at your hand and the dealer’s first card, you need to in turn make a call wager or surrender. The call wager’s value is equal to your beginning wager, meaning that the stakes will have increased two fold. Bowing out means that your bet goes directly to the house. After the wager comes the showdown. If the casino does not have ace/king or better, your wager is given back, with a sum on par with the initial wager. If the house has a hand with ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand is greater than the casino’s hand. The bank pays out cash even with your initial bet and fixed odds on your call wager. These odds are:

  • Even for a pair or high card
  • two to one for 2 pairs
  • 3-1 for three of a kind
  • 4-1 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
