Pai Gow Poker is a cutting-edge game with ancient origins. Founded on the ancient Chinese tile 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 puts the player vs. the dealer, not like most other poker games that players bet against other gamblers. By competing against the dealer, starting players do not need to be concerned about other, more knowledgeable individuals winning their mulla.
Another Pai Gow edge is the fairly slow game pace, newcomers can take their time and strategize without having to make frenzied decisions.
It’s also easier to bet on for a very long time with just a tiny amount of money since, to lose, each of your hands has to be lower than each of the dealer’s hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the customary 52-card standard deck and a single joker. The player is given seven cards face up and the dealer receives seven cards faces hidden.
One 5 card hand and a two card hand have to be made from the 7 cards dealt, the five card hand must be higher than the two card hand. To succeed, a player is required to have both of his hand totals to be higher than the dealer’s.
