Caribbean Poker Regulations and Pointers
Internet poker has become globally acclaimed as of late, with televised events and celebrity poker game events. Its universal appeal, though, arcs back in reality a bit farther than its TV scores. Over the years several variants on the earliest poker game have been developed, including a handful of games that are not in fact poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of the above-mentioned games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely related to vingt-et-un than long-standing poker, in that the players wager against the dealer rather than each other. The winning hands, are the traditional poker hands. There is no bluffing or other types of deception. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to pay up prior to the dealer saying "No more bets." At that point, both you and the casino and of course all of the different gamblers are given five cards. Once you have looked at your hand and the casino’s initial card, you have to in turn make a call wager or accede. The call wager’s value is on same level to your original wager, indicating that the risks will have increased two fold. Surrendering means that your bet goes instantaneously to the house. After the bet comes the conclusion. If the dealer doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your bet is returned, plus an amount on par with the original wager. If the casino does have ace/king or greater, you win if your hand is greater than the casino’s hand. The house pays out cash equal to your wager and controlled odds on your call bet. These odds 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
- 20-1 for a 4 of a kind
- 50-1 for a straight flush
- 100-1 for a royal flush
