CASINO STUD POKER

How To Play

  • The game utilises a standard deck of 52 cards which is re-shuffled between each hand.
  • The Player must place a bet in the ANTE bet area on the table.
  • Five cards are then dealt face up to the Player. The House is dealt five cards (one face up and four face down).
  • The player then has the choice whether to make the PLAY bet or FOLD.
  • If the Player chooses to FOLD, the game round will end and the ANTE bet will be forfeited.
  • The PLAY bet is equal to x2 the ANTE bet.
  • If the player makes the PLAY bet, then the House's cards are revealed and the hands are compared.
  • The House must have at least an A-K high card hand to qualify.
  • This is defined as an A-High card hand, with a K as the next highest card.

Payouts

  • If the House does not qualify, the ANTE bet pays 1 to 1, and the PLAY bet pushes.
  • If the House beats the Player, and the House qualifies, both the ANTE and PLAY bets are lost.
  • If the Player ties with the House, and the House qualifies, both the ANTE and PLAY bets are pushed.
  • If the Player beats the House, and the House qualifies, the ANTE bet will pay 1:1, and the PLAY bet will pay according to the paytable.
  • When a bet is pushed, it is returned to the Player with no additional winnings.

Hand Rankings

  • In Casino Stud, 5-card hands are ranked from highest to lowest as follows:
  • Royal Flush (contains the following cards of the same suit: A, K, Q, J, 10)
  • Straight Flush (contains five cards in sequential value and of the same suit)
  • Four of a Kind (contains four cards of the same value)
  • Full House (contains three matching cards of one value and two matching cards of another value)
  • Flush (contains five cards of the same suit)
  • Straight (contains five cards of sequential value in at least two different suits)
  • Three of a Kind (contains three cards of the same value)
  • Two Pair (contains two cards of the same value, plus two more of another matching value)
  • Pair (contains two cards of the same value)
  • High Card (contains a single card which has the highest value of all cards in the hand)
  • For all hand rankings, note that the value of a card ascends sequentially from 2-10, and then according to the following:
    • J
    • Q
    • K
    • A
  • When evaluating a hand, only the highest possible rank within the Player's cards is considered (while a Straight Flush contains both a Straight and a Flush, it is calculated solely as a Straight Flush). A is high except in 5-4-3-2-A sequence.
