Internet poker has become globally famous as of late, with televised events and celebrity poker game shows. Its universal appeal, though, stretches back quite a bit farther than its TV ratings. Over the years numerous types on the original poker game have been developed, including a few games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of the above-mentioned games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely resembling vingt-et-un than traditional poker, in that the gamblers wager 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 deceptiveness. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up before the dealer declares "No more bets." At that moment, both you and the casino and of course every one of the other gamblers attain 5 cards. Once you have observed your hand and the bank’s 1st card, you must either make a call wager or accede. The call wager’s amount is on same level to your original bet, which means that the risks will have increased two fold. Giving Up means that your wager goes immediately to the house. After the bet is the conclusion. If the casino doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your wager is returned, with an amount equal to the ante. If the house does have ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand defeats the casino’s hand. The house pays chips even with your bet and controlled expectations on your call wager. These odds are:
- Even 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
- five to one for a flush
- 7-1 for a full house
- 20-1 for a four of a kind
- 50-1 for a straight flush
- one hundred to one for a royal flush
