Caribbean Stud Poker Probabilities

From: Gambling Planet


Here we`ll attempt to explain the numbers that you so often hear about, particularly the odds you face when playing the game. We`ll try to keep it as simple as possible, so don't worry!

The first thing you should consider is the chances of being dealt the following hands from a fresh deck. Below you will find the hand, the number of possible ways of attaining that hand, and the corresponding odds.

Hand Number of Ways To Make the Hand Odds
Royal Flush 4 1 in 649,740
Straight Flush 36 1 in 72,193
Four of a Kind 624 1 in 4,165
Full House 3,744 1 in 694
Flush 5,108 1 in 509
Straight 10,200 1 in 254.80
Three of a Kind 54,912 1 in 47.32
Two Pairs 123,552 1 in 21.03
One Pair 1,098,240 1 in 2.36
No Pair Hand 1,302,540 1 in 1.99

Now that you have the probabilities of getting the hands, have a look at the payouts for each winning hand.

Royal Flush 100 to 1
Straight Flush 50 to 1
Four of a Kind 20 to 1
Full House 7 to 1
Flush 5 to 1
Straight 4 to 1
Three of a Kind 3 to 1
Two Pair 2 to 1
One Pair 1 to 1
Ace-King 1 to 1

You`ll most likely notice the payouts don't necessarily reflect the odds of attaining the hands, but unlike other games there is a distinction between simply winning, with say, two pairs, and with winning in style, with a royal flush!! Nice!
