Online poker has become world famous recently, with televised events and celebrity poker game events. Its popularity, though, stretches back in fact a bit farther than its TV scores. Over the years numerous variations on the first poker game have been developed, including a few games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of the above-mentioned games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely related to 21 than traditional poker, in that the gamblers wager against the house rather than the other players. The succeeding hands, are the traditional poker hands. There is little bluffing or different types of concealment. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up prior to the croupier saying "No more bets." At that instance, both you and the house and of course every one of the different players attain 5 cards each. Once you have seen your hand and the casino’s initial card, you must either make a call bet or surrender. The call wager’s amount is equal to your beginning bet, meaning that the risks will have doubled. Abandoning means that your wager goes instantly to the dealer. After the bet is the face off. If the bank does not have ace/king or greater, your bet is returned, plus a figure equal to the initial wager. If the dealer does have ace/king or greater, you win if your hand beats the casino’s hand. The casino pays chips even with your ante and controlled odds on your call bet. These odds are:
- Even for a pair or high card
- two to one for 2 pairs
- 3-1 for three of a kind
- 4-1 for a straight
- 5-1 for a flush
- 7-1 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
