Casino poker / CLUB FORMAT 30Easy
Caribbean Stud
Five-card dealer poker with a club scoring twist.
How to play
- 01
Deal five cards each to two challengers and a common dealer, with one dealer card face up.
- 02
The quick club format keeps every hand in; there is no fold/raise decision.
- 03
Reveal the dealer. Below ace-king high, both challengers score +1. If the dealer qualifies with ace-king high or better, compare standard five-card hands: win +1, tie 0, loss −1.
- 04
Compare the challengers’ scores; matching scores replay. No ante, raise payout, progressive or side bet applies.
Equal challenger scores replay, including dealer nonqualification.
Standard five-card high-poker rankings
Royal flush → straight flush → four of a kind → full house → flush → straight → three of a kind → two pair → one pair → high card.
Compare the rank of the made combination first, then kickers from highest downward. Suits are equal. Aces can be high or low in a straight, but cannot wrap around. Short Deck, lowball, Three Card Poker, Four Card Poker and Poker Dice use their own rankings.
AFTER THE GAME
Cards down. Phones up.
The winner proposes the agreed collaboration share on the loser’s first qualifying prospect. Both call counters start at zero. The loser can cancel the proposed split by completing the agreed redemption challenge before its cutoff. The actual work and contribution still determine earned credit.
