Caribbean Poker Rules and Tricks
Poker has become globally acclaimed lately, with televised events and celebrity poker game shows. Its popularity, though, stretches back in fact a bit farther than its television scores. Over the years numerous variations on the first poker game have been created, including a handful of games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling vingt-et-un than traditional poker, in that the players bet against the bank rather than the other players. The succeeding hands, are the established poker hands. There is no bluffing or different types of bamboozlement. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up just before the croupier declares "No more bets." At that instance, both you and the dealer and of course every one of the other players are given five cards. After you have observed your hand and the bank’s 1st card, you need to either make a call wager or accede. The call wager’s value is equal to your beginning ante, meaning that the risks will have doubled. Surrendering means that your bet goes instantly to the bank. After the bet comes the face off. If the bank does not have ace/king or better, your bet is given back, plus a figure on par with the original wager. If the dealer has a hand with ace/king or better, you succeed if your hand is greater than the dealer’s hand. The casino pays out money equal to your initial bet and controlled odds on your call wager. These expectations are:
- Equal for a pair or high card
- 2-1 for 2 pairs
- three to one 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 4 of a kind
- fifty to one for a straight flush
- one hundred to one for a royal flush
