Poker has become world acclaimed lately, with televised tournaments and celebrity poker game shows. Its popularity, though, arcs back quite a bit further than its TV ratings. Over the years several variants on the original poker game have been developed, 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 21 than traditional poker, in that the players wager against the casino rather than the other players. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is little concealment or different kinds of concealment. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up before the dealer saying "No further bets." At that moment, both you and the casino and of course all of the other gamblers attain 5 cards. Once you have looked at your hand and the bank’s 1st card, you must in turn make a call bet or bow out. The call bet’s amount is akin to your beginning bet, indicating that the risks will have increased two fold. Abandoning means that your bet goes immediately to the bank. After the wager comes the showdown. If the house does not have ace/king or better, your wager is given back, plus a figure in accordance with the ante. If the bank has a hand with ace/king or greater, you win if your hand defeats the dealer’s hand. The casino pays out cash even with your wager and controlled odds on your call bet. These expectations are:

• Equal 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
• 20-1 for a 4 of a kind
• fifty to one for a straight flush
• 100-1 for a royal flush
