Poker has become world acclaimed recently, with televised championships and celebrity poker game shows. The games popularity, though, arcs back quite a bit further than its TV ratings. Over the years many variants on the earliest poker game have been created, including some games that are not in fact poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is one of the above-mentioned games. Despite 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 winning hands, are the established poker hands. There is no conniving or other kinds of deceptiveness. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to ante up just before the croupier declares "No more wagers." At that moment, both you and the dealer and of course all of the different gamblers acquire 5 cards. After you have observed your hand and the casino’s first card, you need to either make a call wager or accede. The call bet’s value is akin to your original ante, which means that the risks will have doubled. Giving Up means that your bet goes immediately to the casino. After the bet is the conclusion. If the bank does not have ace/king or better, your wager is returned, including an amount equal to the original wager. If the casino has a hand with ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand defeats the bank’s hand. The bank pays cash even with your original bet and controlled expectations on your call bet. These expectations are:

• Equal for a pair or high card
• 2-1 for two pairs
• 3-1 for 3 of a kind
• 4-1 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
• one hundred to one for a royal flush
