Caribbean Poker Codes and Hints

Online poker has become world celebrated lately, with televised events and celebrity poker game shows. Its universal appeal, though, stretches back quite a bit further than its TV scores. Over the years many variants on the original poker game have been created, including some games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of the above-mentioned games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely resembling chemin de fer than traditional poker, in that the gamblers wager against the house rather than the other players. The winning hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is no conniving or other types of deception. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to pay up before the dealer saying "No more bets." At that moment, both you and the house and of course every one of the different gamblers are given five cards. After you have looked at your hand and the dealer’s 1st card, you need to either make a call wager or give up. The call wager’s amount is equal to your original ante, which means that the risks will have increased two fold. Abandoning means that your wager goes immediately to the dealer. After the wager comes the showdown. If the house doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your bet is returned, plus an amount equal to the initial bet. If the dealer does have ace/king or greater, you win if your hand is greater than the casino’s hand. The dealer pony’s up chips equal to your bet and controlled expectations on your call wager. These expectations are:

  • Equal for a pair or high card
  • two to one for two pairs
  • three to one for three of a kind
  • four to one for a straight
  • five to one for a flush
  • seven to one for a full house
  • 20-1 for a four of a kind
  • 50-1 for a straight flush
  • one hundred to one for a royal flush
