Double-hand Poker is a current game with ancient ancestry. Built on the old Chinese tile game and the modern American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker joins the far east with the wild west in an awesome game for starting gamblers.
Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the gambler vs. the house, unlike almost all other poker games that gamblers compete with other gamblers. By wagering against the dealer, new players do not have to be concerned about other, more advanced gamblers taking their cash.
One more Pai Gow benefit is the fairly slow game pace, beginners should be able to take their time and plan while not having to make frenzied selections.
It is also much simpler to participate in for an extended time with basically a tiny bit of cash seeing as, to not win, both of your hands must be under both of the casino’s hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the customary 52-card common deck and one joker. The gambler is given seven cards faces showing and the dealer is dealt seven cards faces hidden.
A 5 card hand and one two card hand have to be made from the 7 cards, the 5 card hand has to be better than the 2 card hand. To win, a player needs both of his hand totals to be better than the casino’s.
