Internet poker has become globally famous recently, with televised championships and celebrity poker game events. Its universal appeal, though, stretches back in reality a bit farther than its TV scores. Over the years numerous variations on the original poker game have been created, including a few games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of the above-mentioned games. Regardless of the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely related to blackjack than long-standing poker, in that the players bet against the bank instead of each other. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is no conniving or other kinds of deception. In Caribbean stud poker, you are required to ante up just before the croupier declares "No more wagers." At that moment, both you and the house and of course all of the different gamblers are given five cards. Once you have looked at your hand and the dealer’s initial card, you must in turn make a call wager or surrender. The call wager’s amount is equal to your original wager, which means that the stakes will have doubled. Bowing out means that your ante goes instantly to the casino. After the bet comes the face off. If the casino does not have ace/king or greater, your wager is given back, with a figure equal to the original wager. If the bank has a hand with ace/king or better, you win if your hand beats the dealer’s hand. The casino pays money equal to your ante and fixed odds on your call wager. These expectations are:

• Even for a pair or high card
• two to one for two pairs
• three to one for 3 of a kind
• 4-1 for a straight
• five to one for a flush
• seven to one for a full house
• twenty to one for a four of a kind
• 50-1 for a straight flush
• 100-1 for a royal flush
