Poker has become globally famous as of late, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game events. The games popularity, though, arcs back in fact a bit further than its television ratings. Over the years many types on the first poker game have been created, including a handful of games that are not in fact poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of these games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely affiliated with chemin de fer than long-standing poker, in that the players wager against the casino instead of the other players. The succeeding hands, are the established poker hands. There is no bluffing or other kinds of concealment. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up prior to the dealer broadcasting "No further wagers." At that point, both you and the casino and of course all of the other gamblers acquire five cards each. Once you have looked at your hand and the dealer’s first card, you must either make a call bet or give up. The call bet’s value is akin to your original ante, indicating that the risks will have doubled. Surrendering means that your bet goes immediately to the bank. After the wager comes the showdown. If the house doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your wager is returned, plus a figure in accordance with the initial wager. If the dealer does have ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand defeats the casino’s hand. The bank pony’s up cash equal to your wager and controlled odds on your call bet. 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
- twenty to one for a four of a kind
