Poker has become globally famous recently, with televised events and celebrity poker game events. Its universal appeal, though, arcs back quite a bit further than its television ratings. Over the years numerous variations on the earliest poker game have been created, including some games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling chemin de fer than traditional poker, in that the gamblers wager against the bank rather than each other. The winning hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is little bluffing or different kinds of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to pay up just before the croupier saying "No more wagers." At that instance, both you and the bank and of course all of the different players are given five cards each. After you have seen your hand and the bank’s 1st card, you have to in turn make a call bet or accede. The call wager’s amount is equal to your original wager, meaning that the risks will have increased two fold. Abandoning means that your wager goes directly to the dealer. After the bet comes the conclusion. If the casino does not have ace/king or greater, your bet is given back, plus a figure on par with the ante. If the house does have ace/king or greater, you win if your hand defeats the dealer’s hand. The bank pony’s up cash even with your ante and set expectations on your call wager. These odds are:
- Equal 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 four of a kind
- fifty to one for a straight flush
- 100-1 for a royal flush
