Internet poker has become globally acclaimed recently, with televised championships and celebrity poker game shows. Its popularity, though, stretches back quite a bit farther than its TV scores. Over the years several types on the earliest poker game have been created, including a handful of games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely related to chemin de fer than long-standing poker, in that the gamblers bet against the bank instead of each other. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is little concealment or different kinds of bamboozlement. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to pay up before the dealer declares "No more wagers." At that moment, both you and the casino and of course all of the other players receive 5 cards. Once you have observed your hand and the casino’s first card, you have to either make a call bet or bow out. The call wager’s amount is on same level to your original wager, meaning that the stakes will have increased two fold. Abandoning means that your bet goes instantly to the casino. After the bet comes the face off. If the bank does not have ace/king or better, your wager is given back, including a sum on par with the initial bet. If the house has a hand with ace/king or greater, you win if your hand is greater than the dealer’s hand. The bank pony’s up cash equal to your initial bet and set expectations on your call wager. These odds are:
- Even for a pair or high card
- two to one 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
- fifty to one for a straight flush
- 100-1 for a royal flush
