Caribbean Poker Regulations and Hints

Poker has become world acclaimed lately, with televised events and celebrity poker game shows. Its universal appeal, though, stretches back quite a bit further than its TV scores. Over the years numerous types on the original poker game have been developed, including some games that are not in reality poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of the above-mentioned games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling vingt-et-un than long-standing poker, in that the gamblers wager against the bank instead of each other. The succeeding hands, are the traditional poker hands. There is little bluffing or different kinds of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up just before the croupier declares "No more wagers." At that instance, both you and the house and of course all of the other players are given five cards. Once you have looked at your hand and the dealer’s first card, you must either make a call bet or surrender. The call wager’s amount is on same level to your original ante, which means that the risks will have doubled. Giving Up means that your bet goes directly to the casino. After the bet comes the face off. If the casino does not have ace/king or greater, your bet is given back, including a figure on par with the initial wager. If the dealer does have ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand defeats the dealer’s hand. The house pony’s up chips even with your initial bet and controlled odds on your call bet. These odds are:

  • Equal for a pair or high card
  • 2-1 for 2 pairs
  • 3-1 for three of a kind
  • four to one for a straight
  • five to one for a flush
  • 7-1 for a full house
  • 20-1 for a four of a kind
  • fifty to one for a straight flush
  • 100-1 for a royal flush
