Poker has become world famous recently, with televised events and celebrity poker game events. Its universal appeal, though, stretches back quite a bit farther than its television ratings. Over the years several types on the first poker game have been created, including a few games that are not in fact poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling 21 than old guard poker, in that the players bet against the house rather than the other players. The winning hands, are the established poker hands. There is little concealment or different kinds of concealment. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up before the croupier declares "No further bets." At that point, both you and the casino and of course all of the different gamblers acquire five cards each. Once you have seen your hand and the bank’s 1st card, you need to either make a call wager or give up. The call wager’s value is on same level to your original bet, meaning that the risks will have increased two fold. Giving Up means that your wager goes immediately to the dealer. After the bet is the showdown. If the bank does not have ace/king or better, your wager is given back, with an amount on par with the ante. If the house has a hand with ace/king or greater, you win if your hand defeats the dealer’s hand. The casino pays money even with your wager and fixed odds on your call bet. These expectations are:
- Even for a pair or high card
- 2-1 for 2 pairs
- three to one for 3 of a kind
- 4-1 for a straight
- five to one for a flush
- 7-1 for a full house
- twenty to one for a 4 of a kind
- 50-1 for a straight flush
- one hundred to one for a royal flush
