Caribbean Poker Regulations and Tricks


Online poker has become globally acclaimed recently, with televised championships and celebrity poker game events. The games popularity, though, arcs back in fact a bit further than its television ratings. Over the years several variants on the earliest poker game have been created, including a few games that are not in reality poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these particular games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely affiliated with twenty-one than long-standing poker, in that the players wager against the casino instead of each other. The winning hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is no bluffing or other types of deceptiveness. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up just before the croupier saying "No further wagers." At that moment, both you and the house and of course every one of the other gamblers acquire five cards each. After you have seen your hand and the dealer’s first card, you need to either make a call bet or bow out. The call bet’s value is akin to your original bet, indicating that the stakes will have doubled. Bowing out means that your bet goes instantaneously to the dealer. After the bet is the showdown. If the bank does not have ace/king or greater, your bet is given back, including a figure in accordance with the ante. If the house has a hand with ace/king or better, you win if your hand beats the casino’s hand. The dealer pays out chips even with your initial bet and set expectations on your call bet. These expectations are:

  • Equal for a pair or high card
  • two to one for two pairs
  • 3-1 for three of a kind
  • four to one for a straight
  • 5-1 for a flush
  • seven to one for a full house
  • 20-1 for a 4 of a kind
  • 50-1 for a straight flush
  • 100-1 for a royal flush
