Pai Gow Poker is a cutting-edge game with old origins. Built on the ancient Chinese domino game and the modern American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker bands together the eastern with the wild west in an excellent game for starting gamblers.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the gambler vs. the casino, not like the majority of other poker games that gamblers bet against other players. By gambling against the dealer, beginner players do not need to be concerned about other, more advanced players taking their $$$$.
Another Pai Gow benefit is the generally slow game pace, rookies will be able to take their time and plan without having to make quick choices.
It is also much simpler to play for a very long time with just a little bit of money since, to not win, both of your hands must be lower than both of the casino’s hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the familiar 52-card common deck and a single joker. The gambler is dealt seven cards faces showing and the house gets seven cards face down.
A five card hand and one 2 card hand have to be made from the seven cards, the 5 card hand has to be stronger than the two card hand. To succeed, a player is required to have both of his hand values to be larger than the dealer’s.
