Double-hand Poker is a cutting-edge game with old origins. Built on the old Chinese domino game and the modern American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker bands together the eastern with the western in a wonderful game for new players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the gambler against the casino, not like almost all other poker games that gamblers play with other gamblers. By playing against the dealer, beginner players do not have to worry about other, more advanced gamblers taking their money.
An additional Pai Gow benefit is the relatively leisurely game pace, novices will be able to take their time and scheme while not needing to make hasty choices.
It’s also simpler to play for an extended time with basically a tiny bit of cash since, to not win, each of your hands needs to be lower than both of the casino’s hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the familiar 52-card standard deck and a single joker. The gambler is dealt seven cards face up and the house is dealt 7 cards faces hidden.
One five card hand and one two card hand must be made from the seven cards dealt, the 5 card hand must be better than the two card hand. To win, a player needs both of his hand values to be higher than the dealer’s.
