Internet poker has become world celebrated lately, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game shows. The games universal appeal, though, stretches back in fact a bit further than its TV ratings. Over the years numerous types on the original poker game have been created, including a few games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely affiliated with twenty-one than long-standing poker, in that the players wager against the bank rather than each other. The winning hands, are the established poker hands. There is no conniving or other kinds of deception. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up just before the dealer saying "No further wagers." At that moment, both you and the casino and of course all of the different players are given five cards each. After you have seen your hand and the casino’s initial card, you have to in turn make a call bet or bow out. The call bet’s value is on same level to your beginning wager, meaning that the risks will have increased two fold. Abandoning means that your wager goes instantly to the house. After the wager is the face off. If the bank does not have ace/king or greater, your bet is returned, including an amount on par with the original bet. If the casino has a hand with ace/king or greater, you win if your hand defeats the casino’s hand. The dealer pays money equal to your original bet and set odds on your call bet. These odds are:
- Even for a pair or high card
- 2-1 for two pairs
- 3-1 for three of a kind
- 4-1 for a straight
- 5-1 for a flush
- seven to one for a full house
- 20-1 for a 4 of a kind
- 50-1 for a straight flush
