Pai Gow Poker is a current game with old origins. Built on the old Chinese domino game and the current American version of poker, Pai Gow poker joins the far east with the west in a wonderful game for beginning level players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the gambler against the house, not like almost all other poker games that players compete with other players. By gambling against the dealer, beginner players don’t need to be concerned about other, more knowledgeable gamblers taking their money.
A further Pai Gow advantage is the fairly leisurely game pace, rookies are able to take their time and strategize while not having to make hasty selections.
It is also simpler to wager on for a very long time with only a tiny bit of cash after all, to not win, each of your hands needs to be under both of the houses hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the familiar 52-card standard deck and a single joker. The player is assigned seven cards face up and the croupier is dealt 7 cards faces hidden.
A 5 card hand and a 2 card hand must be made from the 7 cards, the five card hand must be better than the 2 card hand. To win, a player needs both of his hand values to be larger than the dealer’s.
