Caribbean Poker Protocols and Hints

Poker has become world famous recently, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game events. The games popularity, though, stretches back in reality a bit further than its television ratings. Over the years numerous variations on the first poker game have been developed, including some games that are not in fact poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these particular games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling chemin de fer than long-standing poker, in that the gamblers bet against the casino instead of the other players. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is little bluffing or other kinds of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to pay 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 attain five cards each. After you have seen your hand and the casino’s 1st card, you have to in turn make a call bet or bow out. The call bet’s amount is on same level to your beginning bet, meaning that the risks will have increased two fold. Bowing out means that your bet goes instantaneously to the dealer. After the bet is the showdown. If the house doesn’t have ace/king or better, your bet is given back, including a figure on par with the ante. If the bank has a hand with ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand defeats the bank’s hand. The house pays out cash even with your wager and fixed expectations on your call wager. These odds are:

  • Even for a pair or high card
  • two to one for 2 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
  • fifty to one for a straight flush
  • one hundred to one for a royal flush
