Pai Gow Poker is a modern game with old origins. Based on the ancient Chinese domino game and the modern American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker combines the far east with the wild west in a great game for early level players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the player against the croupier, not like almost all other poker games that gamblers compete against other gamblers. By wagering against the dealer, new players do not have to worry about any other, more knowledgeable players winning their cash.
Another Pai Gow advantage is the fairly leisurely game pace, beginners will be able to take their time and scheme while not having to make frenzied selections.
It is also easier to enjoy for a very long time with basically a small bit of money since, to lose, each of your hands needs to be under each of the dealer’s hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the familiar 52-card basic deck and a single joker. The player is given seven cards face up and the croupier gets 7 cards faces hidden.
A 5 card hand and a two card hand have to be made from the seven cards dealt, 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 totals to be larger than the casino’s.
