Web poker has become world acclaimed recently, with televised tournaments and celebrity poker game shows. The games popularity, though, stretches back quite a bit farther than its TV ratings. Over the years many variants on the earliest poker game have been developed, including a few games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these particular games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely affiliated with chemin de fer than old guard poker, in that the players wager against the bank rather than the other players. The winning hands, are the established poker hands. There is no conniving or other types of deception. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to pay up just before the dealer announcing "No further wagers." At that point, both you and the house and of course all of the different gamblers receive 5 cards each. Once you have seen your hand and the dealer’s 1st card, you have to in turn make a call wager or bow out. The call bet’s amount is akin to your beginning bet, which means that the risks will have doubled. Bowing out means that your wager goes directly to the bank. After the bet is the showdown. If the bank does not have ace/king or greater, your wager is given back, plus a figure equal to the initial wager. If the house has a hand with ace/king or better, you win if your hand beats the casino’s hand. The bank pony’s up chips even with your wager and set odds on your call wager. These expectations are:
- Even for a pair or high card
- two to one for two pairs
- 3-1 for three of a kind
- four to one for a straight
- 5-1 for a flush
- seven to one for a full house
- 20-1 for a 4 of a kind
- fifty to one for a straight flush
- one hundred to one for a royal flush
