Caribbean
stud poker is a
casino
table game with rules similar to five card stud
poker. Caribbean Poker is standard Five-Card Stud Poker with a slight
twist: one of the dealer’s cards is always displayed. Players compete
against the dealer, rather than other players. However, unlike standard
poker games, Caribbean stud is played against the house rather than
against other players (and, like most such games, it cannot be beaten in
the long run). There is no bluffing or other deception.
However,
unlike standard
poker games, Caribbean stud is played
against the house rather than against other players.
To play, every player places his ante on the layout where indicated; all
ante wagers must be placed prior to the dealer announcing "No more bets".
Each player and the dealer will then receive five cards, face down. The
dealer will turn over one of his cards, then push the cards toward the
players, after which the players may look at their cards. They may only
look at their own cards, and may not discuss what they have with any other
player at the table.
Players have the option to play or fold; if they choose to play, they
place their bets (twice the amount of their respective ante) in the bet
box. If they choose to fold, they forfeit their ante. After all the
players have made their decisions, the dealer reveals his hole cards. The
dealer only plays with an ace/king or higher; he then compares his cards
to the players' cards (individually, right to left), and the players'
hands that beat the dealer's qualifying hand wins.
There are some major rules in Caribbean Stud Poker that must be observed
at all times while playing:
-
Only one hand
per player. Players cannot hold or wager on multiple hands at the table.
-
Players
choosing to play the Progressive Payout feature are responsible for
ensuring their $1 wager has been inserted into slot and the "Indicator
Light" is ON.
-
Players may
not exchange or communicate information regarding their hands to other
players or the dealer. Player violation will result in a dead hand and
forfeiture of all wagers.
-
Incorrect
amount of cards to the player constitutes a dead hand (or push) for that
player only.
-
The decision
of the table/casino supervisor is final.
-
If the dealer
is dealt four cards of the five-card hand, the dealer shall deal an
additional card to complete the hand. Any other misdeal to the dealer
shall result in all hands being void and the cards shall be reshuffled.
-
Each player
shall be required to keep the five cards in full view of the dealer at all
times. Once each player has examined his or her cards and placed them face
down on the layout, they may not touch the cards again.
-
If a hole
card is exposed prior to the dealer announcing No More Bets, all hands
shall be void.
Player
strategy
Using optimal strategy the house edge is 5.224% of the player's ante bet.
This strategy can be complicated and does not lend itself to practical use
in a casino. Using a strategy of raising with Ace/King/Jack/8/3 or better
the house edge is 5.316%, very close to the optimal strategy house edge.
Knowledge of what other players hold can decrease the house edge. It has
been estimated with the knowledge of six other player's hands (30 cards)
and associated optimal strategy the player can gain an edge of 2.3%.
