Caribbean Stud Poker has become one of the most popular new casino games in the last few years. If you like Poker, you will love Caribbean Stud! The object is to play against the dealer, independently of other players. Your goal as the player is to beat the dealer’s hand. The players and the dealer are not permitted to discard or draw any additional cards.

Game Play
After the cards are thoroughly shuffled and cut, each player may place an original wager in the betting space marked Ante. Players, after making an Ante wager, have the option of making a progressive jackpot bet by depositing a token into the appropriate coin-drop located on the layout (players win all or part of the jackpot with hands of Royal Flush, Straight Flush, Four of a Kind, Full House or Flush). Starting with the player seated to the dealer’s extreme left, five cards are dealt face down to each betting position in a clockwise manner, including the dealer. The dealer turns up one card of his or her hand.

After reviewing his or her five card hand, each player has the option to “fold” or play (“call the dealer”). Players deciding to fold return their cards to the dealer, who collects their Ante wagers. Players deciding to play must place a wager equal to exactly twice the amount of their Ante wager in the space marked “Bet.” After all the players have made their decisions, the dealer turns his or her four face-down cards face-up. If the dealer’s hand does not contain ace-King or higher card value, the dealer pays all Ante wagers even money and returns all Bet wagers to the players. If the dealer’s hand contains an ace-King or higher card count, the dealer compares his or her hand with each player’s hand individually, starting with the player on the dealer’s extreme right and proceeding around the table in a counterclockwise direction. If the dealer’s hand is higher than the player’s hand, the player’s Ante and Bet wagers are collected by the dealer, along with the player’s cards. If the player’s hand is higher than the dealer’s hand the player’s Ante wager is paid at even money and the player’s Bet wager is paid according to the odds schedule.

Irregularities
If any player is dealt an incorrect number of cards, this constitutes a dead hand for this player only. Players may not exchange information regarding their hands. Violation shall constitute dead hands and will result in the forfeiture of the offending players Ante wagers and Bet wagers. When the dealer and player(s) have an ace-King, the winning hand is determined by the next highest point value card. In the event that the dealer and player have been dealt identical hands, it is a push.

Minimum Wagers & Maximum Wagers
Seneca Allegany Casino & Hotel shall determine the minimum wagers and maximum wagers at each table including the value of the tokens or cheques used in the progressive jackpot. The amounts of the minimum wagers and maximum wagers shall be conspicuously posted on the sign at each table.
