Web poker has become globally acclaimed recently, with televised championships and celebrity poker game shows. Its popularity, though, stretches back quite a bit further than its TV ratings. Over the years many variants on the first poker game have been created, including a handful of games that are not really poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is most closely resembling 21 than traditional poker, in that the players bet against the house instead of the other players. The succeeding hands, are the traditional poker hands. There is no conniving or other types of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up prior to the croupier broadcasting "No further wagers." At that moment, both you and the dealer and of course every one of the other players attain five cards. Once you have seen your hand and the casino’s first card, you must either make a call bet or bow out. The call wager’s amount is equal to your beginning wager, which means that the stakes will have increased two fold. Giving Up means that your ante goes directly to the casino. After the wager is the conclusion. If the dealer doesn’t have ace/king or better, your wager is given back, plus an amount on par with the initial bet. If the house has a hand with ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand beats the dealer’s hand. The house pays out money even with your wager and set expectations on your call bet. These expectations are:

• Even for a pair or high card
• 2-1 for 2 pairs
• three to one for 3 of a kind
• 4-1 for a straight
• 5-1 for a flush
• 7-1 for a full house
• 20-1 for a four of a kind
• fifty to one for a straight flush
• one hundred to one for a royal flush
