Internet poker has become world celebrated as of late, with televised championships and celebrity poker game shows. Its universal appeal, though, arcs back in fact a bit further than its TV ratings. Over the years many variations on the first poker game have been developed, including a few games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely resembling twenty-one than old guard poker, in that the players wager against the house rather than the other players. The winning hands, are the traditional poker hands. There is little conniving or other types of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to pay up before the dealer announcing "No more bets." At that moment, both you and the bank and of course every one of the different players are given 5 cards each. After you have looked at your hand and the dealer’s initial card, you need to in turn make a call wager or accede. The call bet’s amount is equal to your beginning ante, which means that the stakes will have doubled. Abandoning means that your ante goes immediately to the bank. After the bet is the face off. If the bank does not have ace/king or greater, your bet is returned, plus a figure on par with the ante. If the bank does have ace/king or better, you succeed if your hand is greater than the casino’s hand. The bank pays money even with your bet and fixed expectations on your call bet. These expectations are:

• Equal for a pair or high card
• 2-1 for 2 pairs
• 3-1 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 4 of a kind
• 50-1 for a straight flush
• 100-1 for a royal flush
