Online poker has become world acclaimed as of late, with televised tournaments and celebrity poker game events. Its universal appeal, though, arcs back in fact a bit further than its television scores. Over the years numerous variations on the earliest poker game have been developed, including a few games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of the above-mentioned games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely affiliated with chemin de fer than old guard poker, in that the players wager against the casino instead of the other players. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is no bluffing or other kinds of bamboozlement. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up just before the dealer saying "No further bets." At that instance, both you and the house and of course all of the other players acquire five cards each. Once you have seen your hand and the dealer’s 1st card, you need to either make a call bet or surrender. The call wager’s value is akin to your original bet, which means that the stakes will have increased two fold. Abandoning means that your wager goes directly to the house. After the wager comes the face off. If the bank doesn’t have ace/king or better, your wager is given back, with a sum equal to the initial bet. If the house has a hand with ace/king or greater, you win if your hand beats the dealer’s hand. The casino pony’s up cash even with your ante and fixed 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
- 4-1 for a straight
- 5-1 for a flush
- seven to one 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
