Double-hand Poker is a current game with old ancestry. Based on the ancient Chinese tile game and the current American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker joins the eastern with the western in an excellent game for starting players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the gambler against the casino, unlike nearly all other poker games that gamblers wager against other players. By betting against the dealer, starting players don’t have to be concerned about any other, more skillful gamblers taking their money.
An additional Pai Gow advantage is the fairly slow game pace, newcomers will be able to take their time and plan without having to make frenzied decisions.
It’s also much simpler to wager on for a very long time with only a small bit of money seeing as, to not win, both of your hands has to be lower than both of the houses hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the normal 52-card common deck and one joker. The player is given 7 cards faces showing and the croupier is given 7 cards faces hidden.
One 5 card hand and a 2 card hand need to be put together from the seven cards, the five card hand has to be higher than the two card hand. To succeed, a player needs both of his hand totals to be higher than the houses.
