Caribbean Poker Protocols and Pointers


Internet poker has become world celebrated as of late, with televised events and celebrity poker game events. The games popularity, though, arcs back in fact a bit farther than its television scores. Over the years many variants on the first poker game have been created, including a handful of games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of the above-mentioned games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling twenty-one than traditional poker, in that the gamblers wager against the dealer rather than each other. The succeeding hands, are the established poker hands. There is no concealment or other kinds of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up before the croupier declares "No further bets." At that instance, both you and the house and of course all of the other gamblers are given 5 cards each. Once you have seen your hand and the bank’s first card, you need to either make a call bet or surrender. The call bet’s amount is akin to your original bet, indicating that the stakes will have increased two fold. Abandoning means that your ante goes immediately to the casino. After the bet is the face off. If the dealer does not have ace/king or better, your bet is given back, with an amount on par with the ante. If the casino has a hand with ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand is greater than the casino’s hand. The house pays money even with your ante and controlled odds on your call bet. These expectations 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
  • five to one for a flush
  • 7-1 for a full house
  • twenty to one for a 4 of a kind
  • 50-1 for a straight flush
  • one hundred to one for a royal flush
