Caribbean Poker Protocols and Tricks

Web poker has become globally famous as of late, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game shows. Its universal appeal, though, stretches back in fact a bit further than its television ratings. Over the years several variants on the first poker game have been created, including some games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of the above-mentioned games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely resembling twenty-one than old guard poker, in that the gamblers bet against the dealer instead of each other. The succeeding hands, are the traditional poker hands. There is little bluffing or other types of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up just before the dealer broadcasting "No further wagers." At that moment, both you and the house and of course all of the different gamblers are given 5 cards each. After you have observed your hand and the dealer’s first card, you need to either make a call bet or bow out. The call bet’s amount is akin to your beginning ante, which means that the risks will have doubled. Bowing out means that your bet goes immediately to the casino. After the wager is the showdown. If the dealer doesn’t have ace/king or better, your bet is given back, plus a figure equal to the original bet. If the bank has a hand with ace/king or better, you succeed if your hand is greater than the dealer’s hand. The dealer pays cash equal to your wager and fixed expectations on your call wager. These expectations are:

  • Even for a pair or high card
  • two to one for two pairs
  • 3-1 for three of a kind
  • four to one for a straight
  • 5-1 for a flush
  • 7-1 for a full house
  • twenty to one for a four of a kind
  • 50-1 for a straight flush
  • 100-1 for a royal flush
