the Texas hold"em game is actually called  Heads up Hold"em.. played pretty close to the same only 3X before flop instead of 4X... two different sides bets one is a ace face it pays 5 to1 on a pocket pair, 10 to1 on ace face. 20 to 1 on ace face suited, and pocket aces get 25 to 1, other side bet pays on a full house or more cant remember the name but it pays well on quads or better 100 to1. I dont normally play that one but did have $1 on a straight flush and got $500 bonus...

it used to be 4x pre-flop but they changed a few years back.  Really disappointing as I enjoyed that game but switching to 3x tilts the odds to the house way too much so I don’t play anymore.

I don’t think any of the ships offer Caribbean Stud anymore. I always played but the table was often the least used in the casino.

It was a pretty unique and fun game when it came out.  Even in Vegas not super popular table.  It kind of started the run of new table games outside of traditional blackjack.  Others seem to pay out a little better in the short run to keep you playing.

CCL (Same games on carnival as on princess) offers:

- Craps (Only Double Odds)

- Blackjack (6:5 on tables less than $25)

- Let It Ride

- Heads Up Hold ‘Em (similar to UTH; but a little worse house edge)

- Three Card Prime (exactly the same game as Three Card Poker; it just has a “prime” bonus bet)

- Roulette (Mostly 00; but I swear I saw a 000 somewhere)

they had the triple zero wheel for a minute before the pandemic, I saw it on he Inspiration, and I never saw a player play on it.. they also had the roulette machine and it was packed every night...it had the normal  0 and 00 

I have been on 3 other ships since and not seen it again, I asked a host about it and they said they threw it overboard.. lol

Roulette had 000 on Sunshine right after the restart (and maybe before the restart as well) but before they changed out the tables for the 50th birthday ones. It's back to 0 and 00 now. I doubt they'll go back to 000 after the 50th celebration is over.
