Internet poker has become globally acclaimed lately, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game shows. The games popularity, though, arcs back in fact a bit further than its TV ratings. Over the years many variants on the first poker game have been developed, including a handful of games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of the above-mentioned games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely related to 21 than traditional poker, in that the players bet against the dealer rather than the other players. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is no bluffing or different types of deception. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up before the croupier declares "No more bets." At that point, both you and the bank and of course every one of the different players 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 bet or give up. The call wager’s amount is on same level to your original bet, which means that the stakes will have doubled. Abandoning means that your wager goes directly to the casino. After the wager is the face off. If the house doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your wager is returned, including an amount in accordance with the original wager. If the dealer does have ace/king or better, you succeed if your hand beats the bank’s hand. The house pays cash equal to your initial bet and set odds on your call wager. These odds are:
- Equal for a pair or high card
- two to one for two pairs
- three to one for three of a kind
- 4-1 for a straight
- 5-1 for a flush
- 7-1 for a full house
- 20-1 for a four of a kind
- fifty to one for a straight flush
- 100-1 for a royal flush
