$121,369 Caribbean Hold’em Poker Jackpot Hit At Bodog Casino

A Bodog casino player hit a major Caribbean poker jackpot at Bodog Casino. The Caribbean Hold’em game is brand new, and has already hit!

Mark W. A Colorado resident hit new casino game’s jackpot after making a bet on the games progressive jackpot prize. He took down the jackpot of $121,369 by hitting a Royal Flush. The jackpot is shared among both Bodog’s Caribbean Holdem and Caribbean Stud poker games, therefore Mike W. Took down the combined payout of both machines.

Caribbean Hold’em poker is a derivative of Caribbean Stud Poker and Texas Holdem Poker, in this version, a player plays against the house, not other live players. To start the game off, the online casino dealer deals himself 2 cards face down, and the player two cards face up. Just like in Holdem, there is a three card flop dealt face up in the center of the table.

The player now chooses, without seeing the dealers cards if they think their five card hand (using the three community cards) will beat the dealers hand. If the player believes they have a strong hand, they call, if not, they can fold. If the player makes the call, the ‘turn’ and ‘river’ are both dealt.

At this point the dealer and the player make the best five card hands they are able to create out of the community cards and their own hole cards. The dealer must qualify, but so long as that happens, the player gets paid for beating the dealer, and looses if he is beat by the dealer.
