How to play Caribbean Stud Poker
At the start of the game, the player places a bet. The cards are then dealt, with all of the player's cards facing upwards and all of the dealer's cards facing downwards, except one. This game does not feature any card replacements for either the player or the dealer. Now the player must decide whether to raise the
bet or fold based on the player's hand and the upwards facing card of the dealer. If the player decides to raise, the bet is raised automatically. The value of the raised bet is fixed as twice the bet, and no card alternations are allowed. The dealer must hold an Ace and a King or higher in order to open his hand. If the dealer does not qualify then the player wins the game on his bet and the raise will push.
The dealer must then reveal his cards and both hands are compared. If the dealer wins, he keeps both bet and ante. If the player boasts a better hand, he will win the ante straight plus the bet multiplied according to the hand. Wins will be paid according to the paytable.
