In Caribbean Stud Poker, you are dealt five cards shown face up and the dealer is dealt five cards with four cards shown face down and one card shown face up. The goal of Caribbean Stud Poker is to get a higher-ranked poker hand than the dealer.
The dealer’s hand must have an Ace and King or a pair or better to qualify. If the dealer’s hand does not qualify, you automatically win even money on the ante and keep your raised bet. All other winning hands are determined by the highest ranking poker hand, or in the event of a tie, by the high card.
