Caribbean Stud Tips 1-10 |
In Caribbean Stud Poker, the most important decision for a player is whether to fold or raise their bets after the cards are dealt. There are 4 possible outcomes. If you fold, you lose your ante bet. If you raise and the dealer doesn't qualify, then you win the ante bet. If you raise and the dealer qualifies and your hand beats the dealer's hand, you win both the ante and the raise bet. If you raise and the dealer qualifies but the dealer's hand beats your hand, you lose both the ante and the raise bet. |
