Online poker has become globally famous as of late, with televised tournaments and celebrity poker game shows. Its popularity, though, arcs back in reality a bit further than its television scores. Over the years many variants on the original poker game have been created, including some games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely affiliated with vingt-et-un than old guard poker, in that the players bet against the dealer instead of the other players. The succeeding hands, are the traditional poker hands. There is little conniving or other kinds of deceptiveness. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to pay up just before the croupier declares "No further wagers." At that point, both you and the house and of course every one of the different players are given five cards each. Once you have observed your hand and the dealer’s initial card, you must either make a call wager or give up. The call bet’s value is equal to your original wager, indicating that the risks will have increased two fold. Giving Up means that your bet goes immediately to the bank. After the bet is the face off. If the dealer doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your wager is given back, with a sum equal to the original wager. If the dealer does have ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand beats the dealer’s hand. The casino pays chips equal to your initial bet and fixed expectations on your call bet. These odds 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
- seven to one for a full house
- twenty to one for a 4 of a kind
- fifty to one for a straight flush
- 100-1 for a royal flush
