In Caribbean Stud
Poker the player will be asked to make a ante wager plus an $1
progressive side bet. The dealer and all the players receive 5 cards
faced down only one dealer’s cards are shown. Only the player will
see and examine their cards. At this point the player is forced to
fold or raise. If it fold he forfeits, if it raise he must make a
new bet, equal or two times the ante bet. Once that, the dealer will
show his cards.
The dealer must have
an ace and a king, at least, to qualify. If the dealer does not
qualify the player will win even money on his ante wager and the
raise will push. In the case of the dealer qualifies and beat the
player, the player will lose the ante bet and the raise. If the
dealer and the player tie the ante and the raise will go up. If the
dealers qualifies but loses to the player the player will win
according to the following table:
Most Caribbean
Stud games have a Progressive Jackpot that can be bet on
in addition to the actual hand being played out. If you want to win
that jackpot, you absolutely must put this side bet in. However, be
warned that the jackpot only pays off with very high hands that are
hard to hit. If you don't hit one of those huge hands, your side bet
is collected, regardless of whether you won the hand by beating the
dealer or not.
