Caribbean Stud – Online Poker Meets Blackjack
Playing online poker against other players can be really profitable for the skilled player. If you are a novice to poker, on the other hand, a great place to learn the basics and hand ranking of poker and have some fun in the meantime could be at your favorite online casino – playing Caribbean Stud Poker. Of course, it’s not really poker when you only play against the dealer. It’s more of a blackjack-poker hybrid, but this makes it no less entertaining.
There’s also the added excitement and value of the progressive jackpot – you could potentially win a huge amount of money from a relatively small side bet. Also interesting is that the house edge becomes smaller and smaller as the jackpot grows. Once the jackpot reaches a certain amount, you could actually be playing with a positive expected value. Caribbean Stud can be played as a multiplayer game – which makes it more fun – but all players play vs. the dealer.
Playing Caribbean Stud Poker with a perfect strategy is almost impossible, but I usually play with the following basic strategy, which I think is probably correct in most cases: I will fold a worse hand than the dealers qualifying hand and raise with any pair or better. But more importantly – I always look for the casino with the largest progressive jackpot at the moment and post the side bet.
