Pai Gow Poker is a cutting-edge game with old ancestry. Founded on the old Chinese tile game and the current American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker joins the east with the wild west in a wonderful game for starting gamblers.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the player against the croupier, not like almost all other poker games that gamblers wager with other gamblers. By gambling against the dealer, new players do not need to be concerned about any other, more knowledgeable individuals taking their money.
A further Pai Gow advantage is the relatively slow game play, novices are able to take their time and plan while not having to make hasty decisions.
It’s also easier to wager on for a long time with only a little bit of money seeing as, to lose, both of your hands must be lower than both of the casino’s hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the normal 52-card common deck and one joker. The gambler is dealt 7 cards faces showing and the croupier gets 7 cards face down.
A five card hand and a two card hand must be made from the 7 cards, the five card hand must be higher than the two card hand. To succeed, a player is required to have both of his hand totals to be better than the dealer’s.
