| Short Description
|
 Nassau Red's Caribbean Stud Poker is a poker-style game, in which the player competes, one on one, against the dealer. At the end of the hand, the player and dealer compare hands formed from their five cards. The player's goal is to beat the dealer's hand. |
| Caribbean Stud Poker Rules |
Caribbean Stud Poker is played with a standard 52-card deck of cards. To start the game, the player must first place an "Ante Bet". The dealer then gives each player five cards face-up. The dealer also receives five cards; four cards dealt face down, and one card face up.
When the player looks at his/her cards, and the dealer's Up Card, the player either challenges the dealer's hand, by placing a BET, or FOLDS. The "Challenge Bet or Raise" is always equal to twice the Ante Bet. If the player chooses to "FOLD", the Ante Bet is lost.
When a Challenge Bet or Raise is made, the dealer reveals his four remaining cards, and the hands are then compared.
In order to qualify, the dealer's hand must contain at least one Ace and one King. If the dealer's hand does not qualify, the players receive a 1 to 1 payout on their Ante Bet, and the Challenge Bet/ Raise is returned without additional winnings.
Should the dealer's hand qualify (with a value of at least
one Ace and one King), the player's and dealer's hands
are then compared, and the best hand wins (see Poker Hand
Value Chart below). A player's winning hand receives 1
to 1 on the Ante Bet, plus the winnings on the Challenge
Bet, which are calculated according to the hand's value
(see "Payoff" column of Poker Hand Value Chart below).
Playing the progressive
The progressive jackpot bet is separated from the original
ante and raise bets. Usually the progressive bet is a
$1 wager that is paid off even if the dealer fails to
qualify or wins the hand. When you make your Ante Bet,
add another $1 in the slot in front of your bet. This
means you are playing for the Progressive Jackpot along
with your Ante Bet.

Push
When the dealer's and the player's hands are equal, it is considered a "Push", and both the Ante Bet and the Challenge Bet are returned to the player.
