Check out our full guide to Caribbean Stud Here ****** By Aminah Khan! Born of the casino world’s penchant for poker and a prodigy with disputed origins, Caribbean Stud Poker has made itself well known in today’s gaming venues. If you’re a novice, your aim may be to ‘stay in the game’ as long as possible but really you should be in it to win it. Bin the bluffing and bag a strategy because what you need is a game plan. The tactics used at other poker tables cannot be relied on to minimise risk when it comes to this genre of poker because to begin with, the opponent in this game is different. Read on for top tips on how to bend the odds in your favour, and minimise the risk of a mishap resulting from wagering money without a strategy and understanding of the game. Caribbean Stud Poker strategy is about whether to fold or not to fold, to raise or not to raise, which is dependent on the hand your are dealt and your tactical understanding of the game. Caribbean Stud Poker, unlike its, contemporaries is played against the house rather than other players and the house has an advantage in the form of progressive jackpot side bets. Top Tips to ‘Play to Win’ • Always raise with a pair or higher. • Always fold anything lower than an Ace-King high • Always raise if you’re holding ace and the dealer’s up card is queen or lower and of equal value to one of your cards. • Always raise if you have ace king and the dealer’s up card is an ace or a king and you have a queen or a jack • Avoid placing bets at random. Instead, first consider the strength of your hand. • Don’t assume that you can bluff your way to a win. This is not bluff, it’s poker; and requires a dexterity to gauge the wining potential of one’s hand. • Avoid placing progressive jackpot side bets Caribbean Stud Poker’s Progressive Jackpot That said, when it comes to placing the optional $1 progressive jackpot side bet, opinions do vary within the gaming community. Some share our view of this so called ‘sucker-bet’, that should be opted out of unless the progressive jackpot is large enough to take the risk. However there are others who believe that it’s what injects adventure into the game by augmenting the rewards. The upside of playing a $1 side bet is that if you are lucky enough to get a Royal Flush, the progressive jackpot is all yours. However, if you get a Royal Flush but haven’t placed a side bet your bounty will be a fragment of that; a payout of 100 to 1, to be precise. If the progressive jackpot is quite large, players do not need a Royal Flush, or indeed a flush at all to gain from it. A player can win $500 for four of a kind and $100 for a full house. If you are lucky enough to get a flush but not enough to be dealt a Royal Flush, you’ve still got a bounty to claim. For a straight flush, a player claims 10% of the progressive jackpot and for a flush, $50. Caribbean Stud Poker’s Myths • A hand with an Ace and Queen is invincible: You can’t bank on a win with this hand. If you play this hand you can only win if the dealer gets nothing. • Caribbean Stud Poker doesn’t require precision planning and can simply be played for sake of playing: You should be playing to win and for that, having a strategy is key.
