Web poker has become world famous lately, with televised tournaments and celebrity poker game shows. The games popularity, though, arcs back in reality a bit farther than its TV ratings. Over the years many variations on the first poker game have been developed, including a handful of games that are not in fact poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these particular games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely resembling vingt-et-un than long-standing poker, in that the gamblers bet against the house instead of each other. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is little conniving or different kinds of deceptiveness. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to pay up prior to the dealer saying "No more bets." At that point, both you and the bank and of course all of the different players attain 5 cards. Once you have seen your hand and the dealer’s initial card, you need to either make a call bet or accede. The call wager’s value is on same level to your original bet, indicating that the risks will have increased two fold. Abandoning means that your bet goes instantaneously to the house. After the bet comes the face off. If the house doesn’t have ace/king or better, your bet is returned, with a figure on par with the initial bet. If the dealer has a hand with ace/king or better, you succeed if your hand defeats the bank’s hand. The dealer pony’s up money equal to your wager and set expectations on your call wager. These odds are:
- Equal for a pair or high card
- 2-1 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
- 20-1 for a four of a kind
- fifty to one for a straight flush
- one hundred to one for a royal flush
