Caribbean Stud poker is a fun and simple casino poker game that offers quick game play, easy to learn rules, and the chance to make a bonus bet that could have a huge payout if you hit a big hand and win the jackpot.

Rules for Caribbean Stud

This is the standard "Caribbean Stud" poker game. Every game is played with a standard 52 card deck that’s shuffled after each game.

To begin the game, the player places an ante bet. Players also have the option before the hand is dealt to place an extra bet towards a jackpot bonus.

The player and the dealer are then each dealt their own five card hand. All of the player’s cards are dealt face up, and one of the dealer's cards is face up and the other four are face down.

The player must then decide whether to stay in or fold. If you fold, you forfeit your ante. If you stay in, you must add to your bet double the amount of the ante that you initially wagered to begin the game of Caribbean Stud poker.

Assuming the player is still in and hasn’t surrendered their hand, the dealer then looks at his/her cards. If the dealer does not have at least an Ace plus King then the player automatically wins even money on the ante and the additional bet is returned. If the dealer does have at least Ace plus King then the player’s hand and the dealer’s hand are compared against one another.

If the player has the higher five card poker hand, they win even money on the ante, and the additional bet pays according to the payoff table below. If the dealer's hand beats the player's hand, then the player loses both the ante and raise that the player added to their bet to continue the game.

If you have placed a bet on the jackpot you also win an additional amount specified in the Caribbean Stud Jackpot Bonus column below.

Royal flush	200 to 1	100% of Jackpot
Straight flush	50 to 1	2500
