More information in PDF format about the Boss Media Caribbean Stud Poker house edge is available here.

When checking out Boss Media's Gold Club Casino, we noticed they impose a maximum payout per hand of $25,000 (this excludes the payout's on the progressive side bet of course). So there's no reason for you to bet more than $250 on your call bet, because that's the minimum bet size that will earn you $25,000 if you receive a Royal Flush (and the dealer qualifies). Your maximum ante bet should be $125 because the call bet is always twice as much as your ante bet (Gold Club Casino has ante betting limits between $1 and $500).

Boss Media Caribbean Stud Poker pay table (side bet)

Hand Boss Media pay table Standard pay table
Royal Flush 100% of the progressive jackpot 100% of the progressive jackpot
Straight Flush 10% of the progressive jackpot 10% of the progressive jackpot
4 of a Kind $500 $100
Full House $100 $75
Flush $50 $50

The pay table on the progressive side bet Boss Media is offering is better than standard, which can be seen if you compare the payout's for the Full House and the Four of a Kind in the table above. While still being a bad bet, it takes a lower than standard jackpot size to overcome the house edge. We've calculated that jackpot values in excess of $217,931.81 will give the player an advantage.
