Caribbean Poker Rules and Pointers


Poker has become globally famous as of late, with televised events and celebrity poker game events. Its universal appeal, though, stretches back in reality a bit further than its television ratings. Over the years numerous variants on the original poker game have been developed, including some games that are not in fact poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling chemin de fer than traditional poker, in that the players bet against the dealer rather than the other players. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is little concealment or other kinds of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to pay up just before the croupier broadcasting "No more wagers." At that point, both you and the house and of course every one of the different gamblers receive five cards each. After you have observed your hand and the dealer’s initial card, you have to either make a call bet or give up. The call bet’s amount is akin to your beginning bet, which means that the stakes will have doubled. Giving Up means that your bet goes instantly to the house. After the bet comes the conclusion. If the dealer doesn’t have ace/king or better, your bet is returned, plus a figure on par with the initial bet. If the bank has a hand with ace/king or better, you win if your hand beats the bank’s hand. The dealer pays cash even with your ante and set expectations on your call wager. These odds are:

  • Even for a pair or high card
  • two to one for two pairs
  • three to one for 3 of a kind
  • 4-1 for a straight
  • 5-1 for a flush
  • seven to one 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
