Web poker has become globally famous lately, with televised championships and celebrity poker game events. The games popularity, though, stretches back in fact a bit further than its television scores. Over the years numerous variations on the first poker game have been created, including some games that are not in reality poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely related to chemin de fer than long-standing poker, in that the gamblers bet against the house instead of each other. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is little conniving or other types of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to pay up prior to the dealer announcing "No further wagers." At that point, both you and the house and of course all of the different players attain five cards each. After you have seen your hand and the dealer’s first card, you must in turn make a call bet or surrender. The call wager’s value is akin to your beginning ante, meaning that the stakes will have doubled. Bowing out means that your wager goes instantly to the house. After the wager comes the conclusion. If the casino doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your wager is given back, plus a sum on par with the initial wager. If the dealer does have ace/king or better, you win if your hand is greater than the bank’s hand. The dealer pony’s up chips even with your ante and fixed odds on your call bet. These expectations are:
- Equal 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
- twenty to one for a 4 of a kind
- 50-1 for a straight flush
- one hundred to one for a royal flush
