Bringing Poker to the Pits
|

|
|
||||||

<br>For decades, if a player wanted poker action were forced into the high-stress poker rooms. It was a game of pure player-vs-player skill. However, in the late 1980s, the industry realized who liked the rules of poker but didn't want to play against other people. The invention was a massive success: Caribbean Stud. It utilized standard five-card poker hands and completely eliminated the other players. Rather than bluffing, it became player versus house. It is a static, dealt game, and no human manipulation. When you have any questions concerning where by as well as how to work with [staycasino australia](https://staycasinosaustralia.com), you'll be able to contact us on the web site.

The Rules of the Game: Step-by-Step
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<br>The reason the game is so popular is the incredibly fast learning curve. If you know a Full House beats a Flush, you are basically ready to play.<br>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Buy-In: To start a hand, you must place a chip on the 'Ante' spot.
|
||||||
|
The Five Cards: You receive five cards. The dealer also receives five cards, with one single card exposed. You pick up your hand, but you cannot show the table.
|
||||||
|
The Player's Choice: This is where strategy comes in. You compare your five cards to the dealer's exposed card. If you have nothing, you fold, and the casino takes your Ante. If you have a strong hand, you make the Call bet. The call is double the Ante. (A $5 Ante requires a $10 Play bet).
|
||||||
|
The House Hand: Once all players have made their decisions, the dealer flips over their four hidden cards. The dealer has to have a qualifying hand. The minimum dealer hand is Ace-King. (If they don't have an Ace and King, they fail).

Understanding the Payouts
|

|
|
||||||
|
<br>How the casino pays you is a bit confusing, because it depends heavily on whether or not the dealer qualified.<br>

|
||||||
|
House Doesn't Qualify
|
||||||

||||||
|
Player Beats Dealer
|
||||||
|
Ante pays 1:1, Play bet pays massive bonus odds based on hand strength

The Only Strategy You Need
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<br>Because the game is so static, the optimal mathematical strategy for Caribbean Stud is incredibly simple. There is no complex strategy card.<br>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<br>The ultimate strategy is: Never fold a pair, always fold garbage. The only tricky mathematical situation is when you are holding exactly Ace/King. As a general rule for beginners, play A-K if you share a card with the dealer's upcard (it mathematically lowers the dealer's odds). Otherwise, fold the Ace/King.<br>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<br>Ultimately, Caribbean Stud Poker is a fantastic, highly entertaining table game for those who want to hit a royal flush without dealing with angry players at a real poker table. Play pairs, fold garbage, and hope for a big multiplier, and have fun at the tables.<br>
