Game Rules - Caribbean Poker

Playing Caribbean Poker

Cantor Casino Caribbean Poker is a fast-paced game in which the object is to beat the dealer in a hand of poker. Cantor Casino offers some of the best odds on Caribbean Poker anywhere in addition to the added exciting feature of a £1 side bet on the Progressive Jackpot, where you can win an ever-growing large jackpot. Caribbean Poker is played with a deck of 52 cards.

How to Play

Place your ante bet into the area marked 'Ante'. The amount of your ante determines your eventual stake.

You may take an optional £1 bet to play for the Jackpot by clicking on the blinking Jackpot coin slot. Winning Jackpot bets are paid as shown on the Jackpot table and regardless of whether or not the dealer qualifies or wins.

After placing your bets, click 'Deal'. You are dealt five face-up cards and the dealer is dealt five cards, the first face up and the remainder face down.

Next, make your decision to BET or SURRENDER having assessed your hand versus the dealer's face up card.

BET
Take this action if you think your hand can beat the dealer's hand. This action will place a bet equal to twice the amount of your Ante into the area marked BET.

SURRENDER
Take this action if you believe your hand will not beat the dealer's hand. This action will result in the loss of your Ante and the game ends.

Once you have made your decision, the dealer's cards are revealed.

The dealer's hand must contain at least one Ace and one King in order to qualify for play. If the dealer does not qualify, the hand is over and you win a 1:1 payout on your Ante and your Bet amount is returned to you. If the dealer's hand qualifies and is superior to your hand, you lose your Ante and Bet. If the two hands are equal, it is considered a push and your Ante and Bet are returned to you. If your hand is superior, you win and are paid according to the payout table on your Bet amount and paid 1 to 1 on your Ante and your Ante and Bet are returned to you.

The value of the progressive jackpot is constantly transmitted by our servers and automatically displayed on the JACKPOT meter. However, due to the practical constraints of communications using the Internet, it is possible that another player has won the JACKPOT within the last few moments, and that it has already been reset to the Minimum Jackpot value. Despite the fact that your screen may not have been updated, the value of the Progressive Jackpot at the time of any win will be determined by our servers.

Return to player percentage

All game outcomes are randomly determined.
The theoretical Return To Player percentage (RTP%) of Caribbean Poker is 94.80%.
