Web poker has become globally famous as of late, with televised tournaments and celebrity poker game shows. The games universal appeal, though, stretches back in reality a bit further than its TV ratings. Over the years several types on the earliest poker game have been developed, including a few games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of the above-mentioned games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely affiliated with chemin de fer than old guard poker, in that the players wager against the house instead of the other players. The succeeding hands, are the established poker hands. There is little conniving or different kinds of concealment. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up before the dealer declares "No further wagers." At that instance, both you and the house and of course every one of the different gamblers are given 5 cards. After you have seen your hand and the bank’s initial card, you have to either make a call wager or bow out. The call bet’s amount is equal to your original ante, which means that the risks will have doubled. Bowing out means that your ante goes instantaneously to the bank. After the bet comes the showdown. If the casino doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your bet is given back, including a figure equal to the initial wager. If the casino does have ace/king or greater, you win if your hand defeats the casino’s hand. The bank pony’s up chips even with your ante and controlled expectations on your call wager. These odds are:
- Even for a pair or high card
- 2-1 for 2 pairs
- three to one for 3 of a kind
- 4-1 for a straight
- five to one for a flush
- 7-1 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
