Caribbean Poker Protocols and Tricks

Web poker has become world acclaimed lately, with televised events and celebrity poker game shows. Its universal appeal, though, stretches back in fact a bit farther than its TV ratings. Over the years numerous variants on the original poker game have been developed, including a handful of games that are not in fact poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of the above-mentioned games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling 21 than traditional poker, in that the gamblers bet against the casino instead of the other players. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is little bluffing or other types of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to pay up just before the dealer declares "No more wagers." At that instance, both you and the bank and of course all of the different players receive five cards each. Once you have seen your hand and the bank’s first card, you need to in turn make a call wager or bow out. The call bet’s value is on same level to your beginning ante, meaning that the risks will have increased two fold. Bowing out means that your ante goes immediately to the bank. After the bet comes the showdown. If the dealer does not have ace/king or better, your bet is returned, with a sum equal to the ante. If the bank does have ace/king or better, you win if your hand defeats the bank’s hand. The bank pays out chips equal to your ante and set expectations on your call wager. These expectations are:

  • Equal for a pair or high card
  • two to one for 2 pairs
  • three to one for three of a kind
  • four to one for a straight
  • 5-1 for a flush
  • 7-1 for a full house
  • 20-1 for a four of a kind
  • fifty to one for a straight flush
  • one hundred to one for a royal flush
