Over the years several types on the earliest poker game have been created, including some games that are not quite poker anymore. Caribbean stud poker is 1 of the above-mentioned games.

Once you have seen your hand and the dealer’s first card, you have to either make a call wager or accede. The call wager’s amount is equal to your original bet, indicating that the risks will have increased two fold. Abandoning means that your wager goes immediately to the bank. After the bet is the showdown. If the dealer doesn’t have ace/king or greater, your wager is returned, including a figure on par with the ante. If the bank does have ace/king or greater, you win if your hand is greater than the casino’s hand. The bank pony’s up cash even with your bet and set odds on your call wager. These odds are:
