Poker has become world famous as of late, with televised tournaments and celebrity poker game shows. Its universal appeal, though, arcs back quite a bit farther than its TV scores. Over the years many variants on the first poker game have been developed, including a few games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely affiliated with vingt-et-un than old guard poker, in that the gamblers bet against the casino rather than each other. The succeeding hands, are the traditional poker hands. There is no conniving or other types of bamboozlement. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up prior to the croupier broadcasting "No further bets." At that instance, both you and the bank and of course all of the different players are given 5 cards each. Once you have looked at your hand and the dealer’s 1st card, you need to either make a call bet or bow out. The call bet’s amount is equal to your beginning wager, which means that the risks will have increased two fold. Surrendering means that your bet goes directly to the casino. After the bet comes the showdown. If the house doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your bet is given back, with a sum equal to the initial bet. If the bank does have ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand beats the casino’s hand. The casino pays out money equal to your initial bet and controlled expectations on your call bet. These odds are:
- Even for a pair or high card
- 2-1 for two pairs
- 3-1 for three 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
- 50-1 for a straight flush
- one hundred to one for a royal flush
