Internet poker has become world acclaimed recently, with televised tournaments and celebrity poker game events. Its popularity, though, arcs back in reality a bit further than its TV ratings. Over the years numerous types on the original poker game have been created, including a handful of games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these particular games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling chemin de fer than old guard poker, in that the gamblers wager against the bank rather than each other. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is no conniving or other types of deception. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up just before the croupier announcing "No further wagers." At that moment, both you and the bank and of course every one of the different players are given 5 cards. Once you have seen your hand and the dealer’s initial card, you must in turn make a call wager or accede. The call wager’s value is equal to your beginning bet, meaning that the risks will have doubled. Abandoning means that your bet goes instantaneously to the casino. After the wager comes the face off. If the casino does not have ace/king or greater, your bet is returned, including a figure on par with the original bet. If the casino does have ace/king or greater, you win if your hand is greater than the dealer’s hand. The bank pays out chips even with your ante and set odds on your call bet. These odds are:
- Even for a pair or high card
- 2-1 for two pairs
- 3-1 for three of a kind
- four to one for a straight
- 5-1 for a flush
- seven to one for a full house
- twenty to one for a four of a kind
- 50-1 for a straight flush
- one hundred to one for a royal flush
