Internet poker has become world famous lately, with televised tournaments and celebrity poker game events. The games popularity, though, stretches back quite a bit further than its TV scores. Over the years several variations on the original poker game have been developed, including a few games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely resembling 21 than long-standing poker, in that the players wager against the dealer rather than each other. The winning hands, are the established poker hands. There is little concealment or different kinds of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to pay up prior to the croupier broadcasting "No further bets." At that instance, both you and the casino and of course all of the different players receive five cards each. After you have observed your hand and the casino’s 1st card, you need to in turn make a call bet or accede. The call bet’s value is on same level to your beginning ante, meaning that the risks will have increased two fold. Abandoning means that your ante goes directly to the dealer. After the bet is the conclusion. If the house doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your wager is given back, including an amount on par with the ante. If the house has a hand with ace/king or better, you win if your hand beats the dealer’s hand. The bank pays out cash even with your ante and controlled expectations on your call bet. These expectations are:
- Even for a pair or high card
- two to one for two pairs
- 3-1 for 3 of a kind
- 4-1 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
