Caribbean Stud PokerPosted by eoin morgan on June 25th, 2019 Caribbean Stud Poker is variation on the standard five-card poker that can be found both in brick and mortar casinos and online. Here is a brief rundown on how the game is played. Each player starts by making a wager with the option to make an additional wager on the progressive side. In Caribbean Stud Poker the player can make a side bet of that pays out for hands of a flush or better. Payoff tables vary but always feature a progressive jackpot that pays the whole jackpot for a royal flush and 10% for a straight flush. If two players had a royal flush in the same hand the player closest to the dealer's right wins the jackpot and the second wins whatever the jackpot is dropped to. In most casinos, the second jackpot is ,000. This is done because the order of play is from the dealer’s right to left. If two players score a straight flush, the player to the dealer's right gets 10% of the jackpot and the other player gets 10% of what is left over. Players are then dealt five cards each, as is the dealer. All cards are dealt face down with the exception of one of the dealer's cards that is dealt face up. The dealer turns over his remaining cards and compares them with the players. Card ranks are the same as regular poker with the additional condition of the dealer 'qualifying'. This is where the Caribbean poker comes into it’s own. If the player and dealer tie then both the ante and raise are pushed. The progressive side bet is paid out based on the value of the players hand. The pay out tables for the progressive bet can also vary. Click to here. Like it? Share it! |
