I've been reading on carribean stud poker rules. I think it's straightforward & fastpaced poker game compared to Texas Hold'em.
There's one rule that is somewhat off:
One important rule, however: in order to qualify for the challenge, the dealer's hand MUST contain an ace and a king. If it doesn't, the challenge is nullified and the player receives a 1 to 1 payoff on the original ante bet
In a deck there will only be 4 kings and 4 aces. What are the chances that the dealer will get both king and ace in a hand? If the king and ace already came out 4 times, this means the rest of the time he will lose?
What is the catch?

That rule does sound a bit off. If that were the case, the dealer would be at a disadvantage lots of times. The house edge would be very, very low in this game. I think there is some typo from that site you were reading the carribean stud poker rules.

Caribbean Stud poker, Is this game really exist in gambling I'm just wondering if this game is really on the market today, imagine the dealer has only less than the average in possibilities to win or mostly a losing streak in a game. A poker game with one sided process. study the game and its history background for more information. :)

I think you are misunderstanding the rule. The article you read if from may have been kind of vague on this rule for caribbean stud poker.
The ace and king requirement is only needed when there are no other combinations on the dealer's hand. If the dealer's hand has a full house or 2 pairs, then you have to beat that in order to win.

Ahhh sounds quite reasonable. I guess you are right. It would be pretty foolish of the casino if the game heavily favored the player.
Thanks for clarifying!
