Caribbean stud poker has a progressive jackpot and is based on five-card stud. The game is played on a table similar to those used for playing blackjack and has seven spots. With Caribbean stud poker, players are set against the dealer, rather than each other.

To begin, you'll need to place a bet in the ante box. You may also choose to place a bet in the progressive jackpot slot. However, this is optional. The dealer will show one of his or her cards and you should examine your five cards. Based upon the cards in your hand, you'll then need to decide whether to fold or call. If you wish to continue to play, you'll need to place a bet that equals double the ante amount. If you choose to fold, you'll forfeit your ante.

Next, position your cards so that they are face down. The dealer will collect the antes of the other players who have chosen to fold. The dealer will also expose the rest of his or her hand. Once, the dealer's hand is exposed, you'll be able to notice if the dealer qualifies. To qualify, the dealer needs an ace-king or something even higher.

If you've placed a progressive jackpot bet, have the dealer turn your hand over, whether the dealer qualifies or not. If you've won, collect your winnings and decide whether or not to play again.
