Caribbean Poker Regulations and Tips
Online poker has become globally famous lately, with televised championships and celebrity poker game shows. Its universal appeal, though, stretches back quite a bit further than its TV ratings. Over the years numerous variations on the first poker game have been created, including some games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of the above-mentioned games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely affiliated with chemin de fer than old guard poker, in that the players wager against the casino instead of each other. The winning hands, are the traditional poker hands. There is no bluffing or different types of deceptiveness. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to pay up just before the croupier broadcasting "No more wagers." At that moment, both you and the bank and of course all of the other players receive 5 cards. After you have looked at your hand and the bank’s first card, you need to in turn make a call bet or accede. The call wager’s value is on same level to your beginning wager, which means that the stakes will have increased two fold. Giving Up means that your ante goes directly to the house. After the wager comes the showdown. If the bank doesn’t have ace/king or better, your wager is given back, plus a figure equal to the original wager. If the house has a hand with ace/king or better, you win if your hand beats the bank’s hand. The bank pays out chips even with your ante and fixed odds 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
- 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
- 100-1 for a royal flush
