Caribbean Poker Codes and Pointers
Thursday, 26. November 2015
Online poker has become globally acclaimed lately, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game shows. Its popularity, though, stretches back in fact a bit further than its TV scores. Over the years numerous variations on the original poker game have been created, including a handful of games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely affiliated with twenty-one than traditional poker, in that the players bet against the dealer instead of each other. The winning hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is little concealment or other types of deception. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up prior to the croupier broadcasting "No further wagers." At that instance, both you and the dealer and of course every one of the other gamblers receive 5 cards each. After you have observed your hand and the dealer’s initial card, you need to either make a call wager or give up. The call wager’s amount is equal to your beginning wager, meaning that the stakes will have increased two fold. Surrendering means that your ante goes directly to the dealer. After the wager is the showdown. If the dealer does not have ace/king or greater, your bet is returned, plus an amount equal to the initial bet. If the casino does have ace/king or better, you win if your hand beats the bank’s hand. The casino pays out cash equal to your bet and fixed expectations on your call wager. These expectations are:
- Even for a pair or high card
- 2-1 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
- twenty to one for a four of a kind
- 50-1 for a straight flush
- 100-1 for a royal flush
