Pai Gow Poker is a current game with ancient origins. Built on the ancient Chinese domino game and the modern American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker combines the far east with the western in an excellent game for starting players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the gambler vs. the dealer, unlike most other poker games that gamblers bet against other gamblers. By betting against the dealer, beginner players do not need to be concerned about other, more knowledgeable players taking their mulla.
An additional Pai Gow edge is the fairly leisurely game play, novices can take their time and strategize without needing to make hasty decisions.
It is also easier to participate in for a long time with just a tiny amount of money after all, to not win, both of your hands must be lower than each of the houses hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the customary 52-card basic deck and a single joker. The player is assigned 7 cards face up and the croupier receives 7 cards face down.
One 5 card hand and a 2 card hand have to be put together from the seven cards, the 5 card hand has to be stronger than the 2 card hand. To win, a player is required to have both of his hand values to be higher than the casino’s.
