Rules
Caribbean Stud uses a one deck shoe that is reshuffled after every hand.
If the dealer's hand does not have a rank of
an Ace-King or higher, the dealer fails to qualify and the game is over. Your bet is returned to you with a winning of one times your ante.
Your ante is $20. Cards are dealt. You want to play your hand so you click Raise. Your bet is double your ante: $40. The dealer does not qualify. Your $20 ante and $40 bet are returned to you. You win one times your ante. You win $20.
If the dealer's hand qualifies, it is compared to your hand.
If the dealer's hand is higher, you will lose both your ante
and your bet. If the dealer's hand is lower, you will receive
twice your ante and will be paid out on your bet according
to the payout schedule. The odds that
your winning hand pays out are shown on the table top next
to the betting circle.
If your hand and the dealer's tie on rank, whoever has the next
highest ranking card is the winner. If there is an absolute
tie, you will get all your money back.
Once the game is over, you will have the chance to change your
ante and begin again.
If you do not have enough credits to ante or bet, you will receive a message to inform you of this. You can then choose to purchase more chips and continue to play.
