Web poker has become world acclaimed lately, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game events. Its universal appeal, though, stretches back in fact a bit further than its television ratings. Over the years many types on the earliest poker game have been created, including a handful of games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of the above-mentioned games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely resembling chemin de fer than traditional poker, in that the players bet against the dealer rather than each other. The winning hands, are the established poker hands. There is little concealment or other kinds of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up before the dealer saying "No further bets." At that point, both you and the casino and of course every one of the other gamblers acquire five cards each. Once you have seen your hand and the bank’s 1st card, you need to either make a call wager or surrender. The call bet’s value is akin to your original ante, which means that the stakes will have increased two fold. Surrendering means that your wager goes directly to the casino. After the bet is the conclusion. If the casino does not have ace/king or greater, your wager is returned, including an amount in accordance with the original wager. If the bank has a hand with ace/king or better, you succeed if your hand beats the bank’s hand. The dealer pays cash even with your wager and fixed expectations on your call wager. These expectations are:
- Even for a pair or high card
- two to one for two pairs
- 3-1 for 3 of a kind
- four to one for a straight
- 5-1 for a flush
- seven to one for a full house
- twenty to one for a four of a kind
- 50-1 for a straight flush
- 100-1 for a royal flush
