Internet poker has become world famous as of late, with televised championships and celebrity poker game shows. The games universal appeal, though, stretches back in reality a bit further than its television scores. Over the years numerous variations on the first poker game have been developed, including a few games that are not in fact poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of the above-mentioned games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling chemin de fer than old guard poker, in that the gamblers bet against the bank instead of each other. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is no conniving or other types of bamboozlement. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to pay up just before the dealer declares "No further wagers." At that moment, both you and the bank and of course every one of the different players attain five cards. After you have seen your hand and the bank’s first card, you have to either make a call bet or surrender. The call bet’s value is on same level to your beginning ante, meaning that the stakes will have increased two fold. Surrendering means that your bet goes immediately to the bank. After the wager is the showdown. If the casino does not have ace/king or greater, your wager is given back, with an amount equal to the ante. If the casino does have ace/king or better, you succeed if your hand defeats the casino’s hand. The dealer pony’s up cash even with your bet and fixed odds on your call wager. These expectations are:
- Even for a pair or high card
- two to one for 2 pairs
- three to one for three of a kind
- 4-1 for a straight
- five to one for a flush
- 7-1 for a full house
- 20-1 for a 4 of a kind
- 50-1 for a straight flush
- 100-1 for a royal flush
