Caribbean Poker Rules and Hints
Web poker has become world famous lately, with televised championships and celebrity poker game events. Its popularity, though, stretches back in fact a bit farther than its TV ratings. Over the years several variations on the original poker game have been developed, including a handful of games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of the above-mentioned games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely affiliated with twenty-one than long-standing poker, in that the gamblers wager against the house instead of each other. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is little conniving or other types of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up just before the croupier broadcasting "No further bets." At that instance, both you and the house and of course every one of the different players acquire 5 cards. Once you have seen your hand and the dealer’s initial card, you must either make a call bet or give up. The call bet’s value is akin to your beginning wager, which means that the stakes will have doubled. Bowing out means that your ante goes immediately to the casino. After the wager is the face off. If the casino doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your bet is given back, with a figure equal to the original bet. If the dealer has a hand with ace/king or better, you succeed if your hand beats the bank’s hand. The casino pays money equal to your original bet and set expectations on your call wager. These expectations are:
- Equal for a pair or high card
- 2-1 for two pairs
- three to one for 3 of a kind
- 4-1 for a straight
- 5-1 for a flush
- 7-1 for a full house
- 20-1 for a 4 of a kind
- fifty to one for a straight flush
- 100-1 for a royal flush
