Pai Gow Poker is a modern game with ancient origins. Founded on the ancient Chinese tile game and the modern American version of poker, Pai Gow poker marries the east with the west in a great game for starting gamblers.
Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the gambler against the dealer, not like almost all other poker games that players wager with other gamblers. By competing against the dealer, beginning players do not have to worry about other, more skillful players taking their moolla.
An additional Pai Gow advantage is the fairly leisurely game play, beginners are able to take their time and plan while not needing to make frenzied choices.
It’s also much simpler to gamble on for a very long time with just a tiny bit of cash since, to not win, both of your hands has to be lower than each of the dealer’s hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the regular 52-card common deck and one joker. The player is assigned 7 cards faces showing and the casino gets 7 cards face down.
One five card hand and a 2 card hand have to be made from the 7 cards dealt, the 5 card hand has to be better than the two card hand. To succeed, a player is required to have both of his hand values to be better than the houses.
