Poker has become world famous recently, with televised competitions and celebrity poker game events. Its popularity, though, stretches back in reality a bit further than its television scores. Over the years many variations on the original poker game have been created, including a few games that are not in fact poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of these particular games. Despite the name, Caribbean stud poker is more closely related to vingt-et-un than old guard poker, in that the players wager against the house rather than each other. The succeeding hands, are the long-standing poker hands. There is little conniving or different types of boondoggle. In Caribbean stud poker, you are expected to pay up just before the dealer announcing "No further bets." At that instance, both you and the dealer and of course all of the other players are given 5 cards each. Once you have seen your hand and the casino’s initial card, you need to either make a call bet or surrender. The call bet’s value is equal to your original wager, which means that the risks will have increased two fold. Surrendering means that your bet goes instantly to the casino. After the bet comes the face off. If the casino doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your wager is given back, with an amount in accordance with the initial bet. If the casino does have ace/king or greater, you succeed if your hand defeats the casino’s hand. The house pony’s up money equal to your ante and controlled odds on your call bet. These expectations are:

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