Caribbean Poker Protocols and Pointers
Poker has become world celebrated lately, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game shows. Its popularity, though, stretches back in fact a bit further than its television scores. Over the years numerous variations on the first poker game have been developed, including a few games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of the above-mentioned games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling twenty-one than old guard poker, in that the gamblers bet against the dealer rather than the other players. The succeeding hands, are the established poker hands. There is no conniving or different types of bamboozlement. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up before the dealer declares "No more wagers." At that instance, both you and the bank and of course all of the other players receive five cards each. After you have seen your hand and the bank’s 1st card, you have to either make a call bet or bow out. The call bet’s amount is akin to your beginning ante, meaning that the stakes will have increased two fold. Abandoning means that your wager goes instantly to the house. After the bet comes the conclusion. If the house doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your wager is given back, plus an amount on par with the initial bet. If the bank has a hand with ace/king or greater, you win if your hand beats the dealer’s hand. The bank pays out chips even with your original bet and fixed expectations on your call wager. These expectations are:
- Equal 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
- 7-1 for a full house
- twenty to one for a 4 of a kind
- fifty to one for a straight flush
- one hundred to one for a royal flush
