Caribbean Poker Codes and Hints

Online poker has become globally celebrated lately, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game events. The games universal appeal, though, arcs back in reality a bit further than its TV scores. Over the years several variants on the first poker game have been developed, including a few games that are not in reality poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling chemin de fer than old guard poker, in that the players bet against the casino instead of the other players. The succeeding hands, are the established poker hands. There is no conniving or other kinds of deceptiveness. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up before the croupier announcing "No further bets." At that point, both you and the dealer and of course all of the different players are given five cards. After you have seen your hand and the bank’s first card, you need to either make a call wager or give up. The call wager’s amount is equal to your original bet, indicating that the risks will have increased two fold. Surrendering means that your bet goes instantly to the bank. After the wager comes the face off. If the bank does not have ace/king or greater, your bet is given back, plus a figure on par with the original wager. If the dealer does have ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand is greater than the casino’s hand. The dealer pays chips even with your wager and controlled expectations on your call wager. These odds are:

  • Even for a pair or high card
  • two to one 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 four of a kind
  • fifty to one for a straight flush
  • 100-1 for a royal flush
