Caribbean Stud Poker is of course based on the poker game, but don't let this stop you from playing it, because the rules and way of playing are a lot easier. You certainly do not have to go straight for the live version where you compete against the dealer, because you can also easily start with the regular online version in the free play mode. So you will quickly realize that it is a very fun card game where you can also use 2 different bonus bets "5 + 1 bonus bet" and / or the "Progressive jackpot side bet". In terms of the chance of winning, it is a great casino table game, because with a skillful way of playing you can count on a theoretical payout percentage (RTP) of 98.19%, which is quite high.
You compete against the dealer at Caribbean Stud Poker and the goal is to make a better card combination than the dealer. You can also win if the dealer does not qualify on the basis of his cards and this applies if the dealer has a lower card combination than an Ace / King. The card game is played with a single deck of 52 pieces and these are shuffled again after each round. With the live variant, it is always nice if several players compete against the dealer, since the players' open cards can already say something about the dealer's hand.
A game round starts with placing a bet in the 'Ante' box (apart from the bonus bets). The lowest betting option is only 50 cents, but of course you can bet much more. The betting and further playing method is the same as the regular online version of Caribbean Stud Poker, only the gaming table with dealer via the live stream makes the nice difference. The dealer sees on his or her screen that you place a bet and the further choices you make. Then it is really like competing against the dealer in a real casino.
After placing the 'Ante' bet it is time for the dealer to deal the cards. As a player you will be dealt 5 cards face up and the dealer also gives himself 5 cards, but only the last one is dealt face up. The intention is to look carefully whether you already have a good or reasonable hand and then to look at the dealer's open card. If you think you can win, you place a bet in the 'Bet' box and the height is always 2x the 'Ante'. For example, if you bet 1 euro on the 'Ante' and you think you can beat the dealer after sharing the cards, then you place 2 euros on the 'Bet' so that the total bet is 3 euros. Then the dealer turns over his closed cards, the cards are placed on the best combination in chronological order.
