ONLINE CASINO (CARIBBEAN) POKER STRATEGIES
Though Caribbean uses the standard Poker hands for scoring, it's really a table game, more like Blackjack than Poker. The house edge is 5.2% - not the best odds in the casino. Experts are divided on just how bad a wager Caribbean represents & whether the odds make the gamble worse than it is.

Five cards are dealt face-up. After that there are just three decisions for the player to make. Firstly: how much to wager. Secondly: after the dealer has revealed one of his cards, whether to Raise ( 'call' ), or Fold. The third decision is whether to take the Side ( or progressive ) bet.
If, after the dealer has revealed one of his cards, you decide to continue by raising, the dealer then reveals the rest of his cards.
What happens next depends on the dealer's hand. If he is holding Ace-King, or better, the hand is said to have 'qualified' and the game continues. If the dealer fails to 'qualify', you win the ante bet ( which pays evens ), but your 'call' bet is simply returned, regardless of what cards you are holding.
If the dealer's hand does 'qualify', then the hands go head-to-head. If you win, the ante pays even money, and if you win with anything better than a pair, the house pays out on your 'call' bet, according to the bonus odds for each hand - from a Royal Flush that pays 100:1, down to Two-Pair paying 2:1.
ODDS & PAY-OFFS
Hand   Pay-off   Odds  
Royal Flush   650,000   100:1  
Sraight Flush   72,200   50:1  
Four of a Kind   4,200   20:1  
Full House   700   7:1  
Flush   510   5:1  
Straight   250   4:1  
Three of a Kind   48   3:1  
Two Pair      21   2:1  
Pair   2.4   1:1  
Ace/King   2   1:1  
THE SIDE (PROGRESSIVE) BET
As stated, there are two rounds of betting. The first bet is the ante. The second opportunity comes when the dealer reveals one of his cards. If you are encouraged by what you see, you can place a 'call' bet, which is fixed at twice the ante bet. If you don't 'call', you Fold and lose the ante. The third opportunity to bet is the to go for the Side bet.
In many of the Caribbean Poker games there is a meter running that shows the amount in the Progressive Pot. For a Side bet of say $1 you get the chance to win some, or all of that Pot - if you win with a Flush or better. The house edge on this bet is about 22%, so the smart money says: don't bet until the pot is high ($150,000 or more).
STRATEGIES
If you hold any pair or better = Raise.
If you hold less than Ace/King = Fold.
If you hold Ace/King:
(i) and the dealer's card is 2 through to queen and matches one of yours = Raise.
(ii) and the dealer's card is an Ace or a King and you hold a Jack or Queen = Raise
(iii) and the dealer's card matches none of yours and is lower that your fourth highest card and you have a Queen = Raise
SIMPLE TIPS
A simple bit of advice - don't raise on anything less than Ace, King, Jack, 8, or 3.
Don't forget, if the dealer's hand fails to qualify - you only win the ante.
Check out the table's maximum payout - no matter what your bet is, or the value of your winning hand, the payout will not exceed this limit.
Don't make the Side Bet unless the Pot is high.
