TABLE GAMES

Cajun Stud Poker Online

Looking to hold a hot pair of dice or a hand full of aces? You’ve come to the right place. Experience the excitement of our table games from popular blackjack to the fast action of craps. Grab the dice, double down or place a hand on red or black, we promise there is never a dull moment!

Blackjack

The classic game in which the player tries to draw to 21, or closer to 21, than the dealer without going over (busting). Each player starts with two cards face up, then is allowed to hit (take another card) or stay (play that hand). The dealer starts with two cards as well, but one is face up and the other face down. Face cards (jack, queen, king) are worth 10, and aces are worth 1 or 11 (player choice). Receiving an ace and a 10 on your first two cards is the lucrative hand known as “blackjack.” Additional bets like “splitting” and “doubling down” are also available on certain hands.

At Boomtown Biloxi, we offer both single and double deck blackjack.

Craps

Possibly the most exciting game on the floor, Craps often draws the biggest crowds. The game appears complicated to the newcomer, but the premise is actually quite simple. Players wage money on the outcome of one roll, or a series of rolls, of two dice by the “shooter.” The game is played in rounds, and the first roll of each new round is called the “come-out roll.” An array of player bets is available both for the come-out roll, as well as each additional roll, with payouts dependent on the likelihood of each outcome.

Roulette

Perhaps the simplest table game of all. In Roulette, a croupier spins the wheel in one direction then places and spins a ball in the opposite direction. After a number of revolutions, the ball eventually falls into one of 38 slots. If the ball lands in a number or color where you placed a bet prior to the spin, you win.

mini & Midi baccarat

Mini-Baccarat is an elegant, simple game to play. There are only two decisions you have to make in the game. How much you want to bet, and whether to bet on the bank or the player.

Midi-Baccarat is a cross between Mini-Baccarat and Baccarat. You experience the benefits of both games – but with a faster pace of play.

One of the big trends in new casino games is to take a poker variation and turn it into a house-banked casino game where you play against the dealer instead of against the other players. Cajun Stud Poker is one of this new breed of game.

I don’t think of these games as really being poker games. Instead, I consider games like Cajun Stud to be faux poker. One of the essential aspects of a poker game is the competition between you and the other players at the table.

Cajun Stud is the brainchild of a company called Galaxy Gaming, which makes a number of these kinds of card games.

The game is based loosely on 5-card stud, but it also has elements of Texas hold’em (community cards). You start by placing an ante bet. Then you have opportunities to raise or fold during the exposure of the cards. The game also features side bets.

The Rules for Playing Cajun Stud Poker

You play Cajun Stud with a standard deck of 52 cards. You start the game by placing a bet called an ante, and you can also place additional side bets — the board bonus bet, the pocket bonus bet, and the lo ball bet (I’ll cover the payouts for those bets later in this post).

Once you’ve placed your initial bet, you get two cards. The dealer also deals three community cards face-down.

After you’ve looked at your cards, you have the following options:

• You can fold
• You can raise

The size of your raise must be one or three times the size of the ante bet. This is your third street bet.

After that phase of betting is complete, the dealer flips over one of the three community cards.

Then, there’s another betting round with the same options. This is your fourth street bet.

After that, you get to see the next community card. You can again raise or fold. This is your fifth street bet.

Once that betting action is completed, the dealer reveals the final community card and pays off the bets.

With the knowledge of four cards, the player may again raise 1x to 3x his ante bet or fold.

Cajun Stud Bets and Payouts

The ante and raise bets get paid out based on the value of your 5-card poker hand.

Probability, Odds, and the House Edge for Cajun Stud Poker

The house edge for the game, assuming you play with perfect strategy, is 1.4%. If you have no understanding of the strategy for the game, you can safely add between 2% and 4% to that number to account for the strategy mistakes you’ll surely make during the game.

The house edge for the side bets is much higher, and you should just skip the side bets altogether. We’re talking about 7% to 8%, which is worse than the house edge for American roulette, which is no great game, either.

You should put some effort into learning the strategy for Cajun Stud if you’re going to play. If you can afford it, you might also consider trying baccarat, where no strategy is necessary, and the house edge is comparable or better.

Cajun Stud Poker Strategy and How to Win More Often

The first strategy tip is simple enough.

Skip the side bets. The house edge is too high.

After that, strategy is as simple as knowing how much to bet at the various stages of your hands.

The first decision you have to make is on your third street bet. You should raise 3x the size of the ante if you have a pocket pair. Raise 2x the size of the ante if you have at least one high card. You should also raise 2x the size of the ante if you have two cards ranked between 6 and 10. Also, if you have the 5 and 6 of the same suit, you should raise 2x the ante.

You should fold if you have two cards lower than 6 unless you have 5-6 suited.

Cajun Stud Poker Game At The Casino

Once you’ve seen the first community card, you should raise 3x the size of the ante if you have any hand that’s already a winner (a made hand). You should also raise 3x the ante if you have a draw to a royal flush or to a straight flush.

You should raise the size of the ante if you have a flush draw, three cards ranked 6 through 10, or if you have a straight draw.

Otherwise, you should fold.

When you’ve seen the second community card, you should raise 3x the size of the ante with any made hand, any flush draw, and any outside straight draw.

You should raise the size of the ante with an inside straight draw, a low-ranked pair, or four cards ranked 6 through 10.

Conclusion

Cajun Stud Poker is a reasonably good casino game version of poker with a reasonably low house edge if you can remember how to play with the correct strategy. It’s a combination of stud poker, and Texas hold’em. If you had to compare it to anything, it probably most closely resembles Mississippi Stud.

The house edge is too high to make any of those bets attractive.

Then just keep in mind the relative value of the cards. Suited cards and connected cards are valuable because of their potential to make flushes and straights. High cards are valuable because the higher the pair is, the better it pays. Low pairs don’t pay well at all.

Also, and this is the easiest part of the strategy to remember:

Always raise the max if you have a made hand.
