Web poker has become globally acclaimed recently, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game shows. Its universal appeal, though, arcs back quite a bit further than its television scores. Over the years many variants on the original poker game have been developed, including some games that are not in fact poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely affiliated with chemin de fer than old guard poker, in that the players bet against the dealer rather than each other. The succeeding hands, are the traditional poker hands. There is little bluffing or different types of deception. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to pay up just before the dealer saying "No further bets." At that point, both you and the casino and of course all of the different players are given 5 cards each. Once you have observed your hand and the dealer’s first card, you must in turn make a call wager or give up. The call wager’s value is on same level to your beginning ante, which means that the risks will have doubled. Giving Up means that your ante goes directly to the house. After the wager comes the showdown. If the bank does not have ace/king or better, your wager is given back, plus an amount on par with the ante. If the bank does have ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand defeats the bank’s hand. The dealer pays cash equal to your bet and controlled odds on your call bet. These odds are:
- Equal for a pair or high card
- 2-1 for 2 pairs
- three to one for 3 of a kind
- four to one for a straight
- five to one for a flush
- seven to one for a full house
- 20-1 for a 4 of a kind
- 50-1 for a straight flush
- one hundred to one for a royal flush
