Web poker has become globally famous recently, with televised tournaments and celebrity poker game events. Its popularity, though, stretches back quite a bit farther than its TV scores. Over the years several variants on the earliest poker game have been created, including a handful of games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of the above-mentioned games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling blackjack than long-standing poker, in that the players wager against the casino instead of each other. The winning hands, are the established poker hands. There is no concealment or other kinds of deception. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up before the croupier announcing "No more wagers." At that point, both you and the bank and of course all of the other players receive five cards. Once you have looked at your hand and the dealer’s initial card, you need to either make a call wager or give up. The call wager’s amount is on same level to your original bet, meaning that the risks will have increased two fold. Surrendering means that your ante goes instantaneously to the house. After the wager comes the showdown. If the bank doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your wager is given back, plus a sum on par with the initial wager. If the casino does have ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand is greater than the dealer’s hand. The house pony’s up cash even with your wager and fixed 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
- 5-1 for a flush
- 7-1 for a full house
- twenty to one for a four of a kind
- fifty to one for a straight flush
- one hundred to one for a royal flush
