Double-hand Poker is a cutting-edge game with ancient origins. Based on the ancient Chinese domino game and the modern American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker combines the east with the wild west in a wonderful game for starting players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the player against the croupier, unlike almost all other poker games that gamblers compete with other players. By betting against the dealer, new players do not have to be concerned about other, more advanced people winning their $$$$.
One more Pai Gow advantage is the relatively leisurely game play, newcomers will be able to take their time and scheme without having to make quick decisions.
It’s also much simpler to enjoy for an extended time with basically a small amount of cash since, to lose, each of your hands has to be under both of the houses hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the regular 52-card standard deck and a single joker. The gambler is assigned seven cards faces showing and the casino is given seven cards face down.
A 5 card hand and a two card hand must be made from the seven cards dealt, the 5 card hand must be better than the 2 card hand. To succeed, a player needs both of his hand totals to be larger than the casino’s.
