Poker Strategy

The optimal strategy for playing Caribbean Stud Poker can become very complicated, when you hold an ace and a king. The house edge for Caribbean Stud Poker, assuming optimal strategy, is 5.2%. The strategy that is offered here is much simpler, at a cost of an increase of the house edge by 0.1%. Raise on any pair or better. Note that this includes raising on a low pairs like a pair of two's or three's, although these bets are associated with a net average expected loss. The point is that the net average expected loss for *not* raising these hands is even higher. Fold on anything less than ace/king. Raise only on ace/king when one of your cards matches the rank of the dealer's up card.
