Caribbean Poker Rules and Pointers
Web poker has become world celebrated recently, with televised tournaments and celebrity poker game shows. The games universal appeal, though, stretches back in fact a bit farther than its television ratings. Over the years several types on the first poker game have been developed, including a handful of games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely affiliated with vingt-et-un than traditional poker, in that the gamblers bet against the dealer instead of each other. 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 ante up before the dealer announcing "No further wagers." At that point, both you and the casino and of course all of the different players receive 5 cards. After 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 value is equal to your beginning ante, which means that the risks will have doubled. Abandoning means that your wager goes directly to the dealer. After the bet is the showdown. If the dealer doesn’t have ace/king or better, your bet is returned, including a sum equal to the ante. If the bank has a hand with ace/king or better, you succeed if your hand is greater than the casino’s hand. The bank pays money even with your original bet and controlled expectations on your call bet. These expectations are:
- Equal for a pair or high card
- 2-1 for 2 pairs
- 3-1 for 3 of a kind
- 4-1 for a straight
- 5-1 for a flush
- 7-1 for a full house
- twenty to one for a 4 of a kind
- fifty to one for a straight flush
- 100-1 for a royal flush
