Pai Gow Poker is a modern game with old origins. Founded on the ancient Chinese domino game and the modern American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker bands together the far east with the western in an excellent game for new gamblers.
Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the gambler versus the casino, unlike the majority of other poker games that players wager with other gamblers. By gambling against the dealer, starting players do not need to be concerned about other, more knowledgeable individuals taking their money.
Another Pai Gow advantage is the fairly leisurely game pace, newcomers should be able to take their time and scheme while not needing to make quick choices.
It’s also much simpler to bet on for a long time with only a tiny bit of money since, to not win, each of your hands has to be lower than both of the dealer’s hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the normal 52-card standard deck and one joker. The gambler is assigned seven cards face up and the croupier is given 7 cards faces hidden.
One 5 card hand and a 2 card hand have to be made from the 7 cards dealt, the 5 card hand has to be better than the 2 card hand. To win, a player is required to have both of his hand totals to be larger than the houses.
