Lots of online casinos offer Caribbean Stud poker online, and many
of them have different payouts and slightly different rules. I offer
some choices where you can play Caribbean Stud poker online below,
along with some observations about the game at each of them.
To me, the main reason to play Caribbean Stud is to try to win
the progressive jackpot, so the comments here will focus largely on
the jackpot aspect of the games at the different casinos.
Free Caribbean Stud Poker Online
All of the casinos listed on this page offer free versions of
their games for people who don't want to play for real money. This
gives you a chance to try out the software before you deposit any
money. If you don't like the software, just move on to someplace
else and find software that you DO like before depositing any money.
Bodog Casino
Bodog's casino software is powered by Realtime Gaming software,
which is a modern and sleek software that runs really fast, faster
in fact than most other online casino softwares.
The payouts for the Caribbean Stud poker game are exceptionally
good. For example, the payout for 4 of a kind at many online
Caribbean Stud poker games is typically $100 or $200, but at Bodog
it's a generous $500. A full house pays $100 and a flush pays $75.
At the time of this writing, the progressive jackpot is over
$100,000.
Bodog is one of my favorite poker rooms to play at, and now that
I've tried the casino, it's one of my favorite online casinos too.
Phoenician Casino
The Phoenician Casino is a Microgaming powered casino, which
calls their version of Caribbean Stud poker "Cyberstud". The
Phoenician Casino pays out a $20,000 win for a straight flush, which
is an exceptional payout, considering that most casinos pay out 10%
of the progressive for the straight flush.
At the time of this writing, the Cyberstud progressive is
$63,000.
Phoenician Casino pays a healthy $500 for a four of a kind and
basically has the same generous payout structure as Bodog, except
that the flush pay on the progressive is only $50 (verses $75 at
Bodog).
The gameplay at Phoenician Casino is different from Bodog Casino.
The cards are dealt at a slower pace, which I liked, because I enjoy
the anticipation of watching the cards come out. The software at
Phoenician also creates a casino ambience in the background with the
sound effects and imagery, which I also liked. The Phoenician Casino
Caribbean Stud poker game is better for type-B personalities, who
enjoy a more relaxed, slower-paced atmosphere.
