Pai Gow Poker is a current game with old ancestry. Built on the ancient Chinese domino game and the modern American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker marries the eastern with the wild west in a great game for new gamblers.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the player vs. the casino, not like the majority of other poker games that players bet with other players. By wagering against the dealer, new players don’t have to worry about other, more advanced people taking their cash.
An additional Pai Gow edge is the relatively slow game play, newcomers are able to take their time and strategize while not having to make hasty decisions.
It is also much simpler to play for a long time with only a small bit of money seeing as, to lose, each of your hands needs to be lower than each of the dealer’s hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the familiar 52-card common deck and a single joker. The player is given 7 cards face up and the casino gets 7 cards face down.
One five card hand and a 2 card hand have to be put together from the 7 cards dealt, the 5 card hand has to be stronger than the two card hand. To win, a player needs both of his hand totals to be higher than the dealer’s.
