Pai Gow Poker is a current game with old origins. Built on the old Chinese domino game and the current American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker bands together the east with the western in a great game for new gamblers.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the player vs. the croupier, unlike most other poker games that gamblers wager with other gamblers. By gambling against the dealer, starting players do not need to fret about any other, more knowledgeable gamblers taking their money.
An additional Pai Gow advantage is the fairly slow game pace, rookies will be able to take their time and plan while not having to make frenzied decisions.
It’s also easier to gamble on for a very long time with only a tiny amount of money since, to lose, both of your hands must be lower than both of the casino’s hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the regular 52-card basic deck and one joker. The gambler is dealt 7 cards face up and the dealer is dealt seven cards faces hidden.
One five card hand and a two card hand must be made from the 7 cards dealt, the five card hand has to be better than the two card hand. To succeed, a player is required to have both of his hand totals to be better than the casino’s.
