Online poker has become globally celebrated as of late, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game shows. The games popularity, though, arcs back in fact a bit farther than its television scores. Over the years numerous variants on the first poker game have been developed, including some games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these particular games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely related to 21 than old guard poker, in that the players wager against the casino rather than the other players. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is no conniving or different types of concealment. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up before the dealer declares "No further wagers." At that point, both you and the dealer and of course all of the other players acquire 5 cards each. After you have observed your hand and the dealer’s initial card, you must either make a call bet or give up. The call wager’s amount is equal to your original bet, meaning that the risks will have increased two fold. Surrendering means that your ante goes immediately to the dealer. After the wager is the showdown. If the casino does not have ace/king or greater, your bet is given back, with a sum equal to the ante. If the casino does have ace/king or better, you succeed if your hand is greater than the casino’s hand. The house pony’s up cash equal to your ante and set expectations 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
- 4-1 for a straight
- five to one for a flush
- seven to one for a full house
- twenty to one for a four of a kind
- fifty to one for a straight flush
- 100-1 for a royal flush
