Pai Gow Poker is a modern game with ancient origins. Founded on the ancient Chinese domino game and the current American version of poker, Pai Gow poker combines the east with the west in a great game for new players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the gambler against the casino, not like almost all other poker games that gamblers wager with other players. By wagering against the dealer, new players do not have to worry about other, more knowledgeable individuals winning their money.
A further Pai Gow benefit is the generally slow game play, newcomers can take their time and plan while not needing to make quick choices.
It is also simpler to enjoy for an extended time with just a little amount of cash since, to lose, each of your hands must be under each of the casino’s hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the customary 52-card common deck and a single joker. The gambler is dealt 7 cards faces showing and the dealer receives seven cards faces hidden.
One five card hand and a two card hand have to be made from the 7 cards, the five card hand must be higher than the 2 card hand. To win, a player is required to have both of his hand totals to be larger than the dealer’s.
