The Player is dealt three cards face up and two cards are dealt face down in front of the dealer – these are community cards that are used to complete the player’s hand. The objective of the game is to get any winning poker hand consisting of a pair of 10’s or higher, using all five cards.
After placing the Ante bet, the Player decides whether or not he wants to Raise the original bet (by the same amount as the original bet), or Continue without a Raise to the next round of play.
Once the Player decides to Raise or Continue, the Dealer’s first card will be shown. Now the Player has another opportunity to Raise or Continue. If he decides to Raise, the bet will again increase by the original bet amount. After the Player Raises or Continues, the Dealer’s last card is shown.
After the Dealer’s last card is shown, the Player’s hand is evaluated as a normal poker hand, combining the Player’s three cards and the Dealer’s two cards.
Player can win if:
The Player receives a pair of 10's or higher using all five cards shown.
Player loses if:
The Player does not receive at least a pair of 10's

Description and Objective
Caribbean Stud Poker is a 5-card poker game played with a single deck of 52 cards, where you play against the Dealer. You place an Ante (initial bet), receive a hand, and decide whether you would like to bet against the Dealer's hand. One of the Dealer's cards is dealt face up so your decision will have to be made on the card showing and the strength of your 5-card poker hand. At this point, you may believe that you can't beat the Dealer and you can simply fold. If you fold, you forfeit your Ante. To bet against the Dealer, you must double your Ante To win, you must not only beat the Dealer's hand but the Dealer must also "qualify."
The Dealer qualifies by getting any hand containing an Ace and a King or better "etc."
If the Dealer does not qualify, you are paid 1 to 1 on your Ante and your "Raise" is
returned to you as a push. If your hand beats the Dealer's hand and the Dealer qualifies, you're paid on the Ante and your Raise. The payoff of the Ante is 1 to 1. The payout on your bet will be determined by the quality of your hand (see Payouts below for more details).
If the Dealer beats your hand, you lose both your Ante and your bet. In the event that you and the Dealer have the same hand, the next highest card (kicker) determines the winner.
The Player can win if:
Ante - The Player has a higher 5-card poker hand than the Dealers.
If the Player Raises and the Dealer does not qualify.
Raise - The Player has a higher 5-card poker hand and the Dealer has a minimum of an Ace/King.
Progressive - If the Player places $1 in the Jackpot slot, the Player receives a flush or higher.
The Player loses if:
The Player folds.
The Dealer qualifies and has a higher 5-card poker hand. |
