Playing Caribbean Stud is as easy as sipping on your favorite Mosi beer during a sunny afternoon at Lusaka's Freedom Park. To begin, you place an ante bet by selecting your desired chip value and clicking on the designated betting area on your screen. Once all bets are placed, including any optional side bets like the progressive jackpot, five cards will be dealt face down to each player and one card face up for the dealer.
Here comes an important decision: based on your initial hand strength and intuition honed from years of bargaining at Soweto Market, you can either fold or raise. Folding means forfeiting your ante bet, but if you choose to raise (which requires doubling your original wager), get ready for some nail-biting action! The dealer reveals their remaining four cards after making this decision.
To determine who emerges victorious in this high-stakes battle between man and machine (or woman - we're all about gender equality here!), hands are compared according to predetermined rankings that resemble those found in traditional poker games such as Texas Hold'em or Omaha Hi-Lo. If your hand beats the dealer's qualifying hand (usually Ace-King or higher), congratulations! You've just secured yourself some sweet winnings!
