Web poker has become globally acclaimed recently, with televised tournaments and celebrity poker game events. Its popularity, though, stretches back in reality a bit farther than its TV scores. Over the years many variations on the first poker game have been developed, including a handful of games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these particular games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely related to vingt-et-un than old guard poker, in that the gamblers bet against the dealer instead of the other players. The winning hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is no concealment or other kinds of bamboozlement. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up before the croupier announcing "No more wagers." At that instance, both you and the house and of course every one of the different players are given 5 cards. After you have observed your hand and the casino’s first card, you must either make a call bet or surrender. The call wager’s amount is on same level to your original ante, indicating that the stakes will have increased two fold. Giving Up means that your bet goes instantaneously to the house. After the bet is the conclusion. If the casino does not have ace/king or better, your bet is given back, with an amount equal to the original bet. If the dealer has a hand with ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand beats the bank’s hand. The dealer pony’s up money even with your bet and set odds on your call wager. These expectations are:
- Equal for a pair or high card
- two to one for 2 pairs

- four to one for a straight
- 5-1 for a flush
- seven to one for a full house
