How Caribbean Stud Poker Works on 888poker
Caribbean Stud is a five-card poker variant played against the dealer rather than other players. At 888poker, our live dealers manage the game flow, shuffle the deck, and handle all payouts. Here is the basic sequence:
-
Place your ante bet
You decide your stake and place an ante chip on the table. Our dealers confirm all bets before cards are dealt.
-
Receive five cards face-down
The dealer gives you and themselves five cards. You see your hand; the dealer shows only one card face-up.
-
Decide to fold or raise
You either fold (lose your ante) or raise by betting twice your ante. Our interface makes this choice clear with on-screen buttons.
-
Dealer reveals and compares hands
The dealer shows their full hand. If the dealer does not qualify (no ace-king or better), your ante pays even money and your raise is returned. If the dealer qualifies and beats you, both bets lose. If you win, both bets pay according to our payout table.
Hand Rankings and Payouts on 888poker
Caribbean Stud uses standard poker hand rankings. A royal flush (ace-king-queen-jack-ten of the same suit) is the strongest hand; a high card is the weakest. We display the full payout table at every table on 888poker so you know exactly what each hand pays before you place your bet.
The ante bet pays even money if you win and the dealer qualifies. The raise bet pays according to the hand strength: a pair pays 1-to-1, two pair pays 2-to-1, three of a kind pays 3-to-1, and so on up to a royal flush, which typically pays 100-to-1 or higher depending on the table. We also offer a side bet called the progressive jackpot on select tables—this bet is optional and pays a separate prize pool if you hit a flush or better.
The key to Caribbean Stud is understanding when to raise and when to fold. A strong hand like a pair or better usually warrants a raise; weaker hands are often folded to preserve your ante.

Account Verification and Security on 888poker
Before you can withdraw funds from 888poker, we ask you to verify your identity. This is a standard practice across the industry and protects both you and our platform. We request a government-issued ID and proof of address—typically a utility bill or bank statement. The verification process usually takes a few hours, though it may take longer during peak periods.
Once verified, your account is flagged as trusted, and you can withdraw to any of our supported payment methods. We use industry-standard encryption to protect your personal and financial data. Your password is never stored in plain text, and all transactions are logged for your records.
