Caribbean Poker Protocols and Pointers
by Ali on Sunday, April 3rd, 2022
Online poker has become globally famous recently, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game events. Its universal appeal, though, arcs back in fact a bit further than its TV scores. Over the years several variations on the first poker game have been developed, including some games that are not in fact poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these particular games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely related to twenty-one than long-standing poker, in that the gamblers wager against the dealer instead of each other. The winning hands, are the traditional poker hands. There is no bluffing or different kinds of concealment. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up just before the croupier announcing "No further wagers." At that instance, both you and the dealer and of course every one of the other gamblers attain five cards. Once you have seen your hand and the dealer’s initial card, you have to either make a call bet or bow out. The call wager’s amount is akin to your original ante, indicating that the risks will have increased two fold. Giving Up means that your wager goes directly to the house. After the wager comes the face off. If the house does not have ace/king or greater, your bet is returned, including a figure equal to the initial bet. If the casino does have ace/king or greater, you win if your hand defeats the dealer’s hand. The casino pays money even with your initial bet and set 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 3 of a kind
- four to one for a straight
- five to one for a flush
- 7-1 for a full house
- 20-1 for a four of a kind
- 50-1 for a straight flush
- one hundred to one for a royal flush
