Pai Gow Poker is a modern game with ancient ancestry. Founded on the ancient Chinese tile game and the modern American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker bands together the eastern with the wild west in an awesome game for new players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the gambler vs. the croupier, unlike most other poker games that gamblers wager against other gamblers. By wagering against the dealer, beginning players do not need to be concerned about any other, more knowledgeable players taking their mulla.
One more Pai Gow advantage is the generally slow game pace, beginners can take their time and plan without having to make frenzied decisions.
It’s also easier to enjoy for a long time with just a small amount of money since, to lose, both of your hands needs to be lower than each of the casino’s hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the customary 52-card standard deck and one joker. The player is given seven cards faces showing and the croupier gets 7 cards face down.
One 5 card hand and one 2 card hand need to be made from the 7 cards, the five card hand must be better than the two card hand. To succeed, a player needs both of his hand totals to be better than the casino’s.
