Caribbean Poker Codes and Pointers
Internet poker has become world celebrated recently, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game shows. The games popularity, though, stretches back in fact a bit farther than its television ratings. Over the years many variants on the earliest poker game have been developed, including some games that are not in fact poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of the above-mentioned games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely related to vingt-et-un than old guard poker, in that the gamblers wager against the bank instead of each other. The winning hands, are the established poker hands. There is no bluffing or other types of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up just before the croupier declares "No more wagers." At that moment, both you and the house and of course every one of the other players receive 5 cards. After you have observed your hand and the bank’s first card, you have to either make a call wager or give up. The call bet’s value is equal to your beginning bet, meaning that the risks will have increased two fold. Surrendering means that your wager goes directly to the casino. After the wager comes the conclusion. If the house does not have ace/king or greater, your bet is given back, including a sum in accordance with the initial bet. If the bank does have ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand is greater than the casino’s hand. The bank pays money even with your wager and set 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
- four to one for a straight
