Caribbean Poker Rules and Tricks


Online poker has become world acclaimed recently, with televised tournaments and celebrity poker game events. Its universal appeal, though, stretches back in reality a bit farther than its television ratings. Over the years many types on the earliest poker game have been developed, including some games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely related to twenty-one than old guard poker, in that the players wager against the house rather than each other. The succeeding hands, are the traditional poker hands. There is little bluffing or different kinds of concealment. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up prior to the croupier announcing "No more bets." At that moment, both you and the bank and of course all of the different gamblers receive 5 cards each. Once you have seen your hand and the bank’s first card, you must in turn make a call bet or surrender. The call bet’s value is equal to your beginning bet, meaning that the risks will have doubled. Giving Up means that your ante goes immediately to the casino. After the bet is the conclusion. If the casino doesn’t have ace/king or better, your wager is given back, including a sum on par with the initial bet. If the casino does have ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand beats the bank’s hand. The house pays out money even with your bet and controlled expectations on your call bet. These odds are:

  • Equal for a pair or high card
  • 2-1 for two pairs
  • 3-1 for 3 of a kind
  • four to one for a straight
  • five to one for a flush
  • seven to one for a full house
  • 20-1 for a four of a kind
  • 50-1 for a straight flush
  • 100-1 for a royal flush
