Caribbean Poker

Game Objective

Caribbean poker holds similarities to both blackjack and video poker. The player plays against the dealer, independently of other players. Your goal as the player is to beat the dealer's hand. The exciting aspect of the game is that you can win big when you least expect it. We have a large progressive jackpot included in this game, which often reaches over $100K.

The Rules

The player antes, and is then dealt a five-card hand; the dealer is also dealt five cards of which only one is exposed. The player now either folds, losing his ante, or bets an additional amount equal to exactly twice the ante. The dealer then reveals his remaining four cards. If the dealer's hand is not Ace-King or better, the player is paid even money on the ante and nothing (i.e., a push) on the bet. If the dealer's hand is Ace-King or better it is said to "qualify" (for play against the player). In that case if the dealer's hand is better than the player's, the player's 'ante and bet' are collected by the house. If the dealer's qualifying hand is worse than the player's hand, the player is paid even money on the ante and an amount on the bet according to the player's hand as in the tables below.

How To Play Select the chip denomination required for your bet. Click on appropriate area of the table to place your bet. After placing your bet click on 'Deal' for cards. Five cards - one face up and four face down - are dealt to dealer and five face up cards are dealt to player. Depending upon your card strength click on Bet or Fold. After this the result will be displayed. If you win, you will be paid as per the above given payouts. And if you lose, you will lose both your ante and bet amount. If you fold, only your ante amount will be lost.
