Pai Gow Poker is a modern game with ancient origins. Founded on the old Chinese domino game and the current American version of poker, Pai Gow poker joins the eastern with the west in an awesome game for starting gamblers.

Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the gambler vs. the casino, not like almost all other poker games that players compete with other players. By playing against the dealer, starting players don’t have to fret about other, more advanced people taking their $$$$.

A further Pai Gow benefit is the fairly slow game play, beginners will be able to take their time and plan without having to make quick decisions.

It’s also much simpler to play for a long time with just a small amount of money seeing as, to lose, both of your hands needs to be lower than each of the dealer’s hands.

Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the normal 52-card common deck and a single joker. The gambler is assigned seven cards face up and the casino is given 7 cards faces hidden.

One five card hand and one 2 card hand need to be made from the 7 cards dealt, the 5 card hand has to be stronger than the two card hand. To succeed, a player is required to have both of his hand totals to be higher than the houses.
