Double-hand Poker is a modern game with ancient origins. Founded on the ancient Chinese domino game and the current American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker combines the east with the wild west in a great game for beginning level players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the gambler vs. the house, unlike most other poker games that gamblers play against other gamblers. By wagering against the dealer, starting players do not need to be concerned about any other, more experienced players taking their mulla.
An additional Pai Gow advantage is the relatively slow game pace, novices will be able to take their time and strategize while not needing to make hasty decisions.
It’s also simpler to participate in for a very long time with basically a little bit of money after all, to lose, each of your hands needs to be lower than each of the casino’s hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the regular 52-card common deck and a single joker. The gambler is assigned seven cards faces showing and the house is given seven cards faces hidden.
One 5 card hand and a two card hand have to 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 totals to be better than the dealer’s.
