Double-hand Poker is a modern game with ancient ancestry. Based on the ancient Chinese tile game and the current American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker joins the far east with the western in an awesome game for beginner level gamblers.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the gambler against the house, not like most other poker games that gamblers compete against other gamblers. By competing against the dealer, new players don’t have to fret about any other, more advanced people taking their cash.
Another Pai Gow edge is the relatively leisurely game play, rookies can take their time and scheme while not needing to make quick decisions.
It is also much simpler to gamble on for an extended time with basically a tiny bit of cash after all, to lose, each of your hands has to be lower than each of the dealer’s hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the customary 52-card basic deck and one joker. The player is dealt 7 cards face up and the croupier is dealt 7 cards face down.
A 5 card hand and one 2 card hand have to be made from the seven cards dealt, the five card hand must be better than the two card hand. To win, a player is required to have both of his hand totals to be higher than the dealer’s.
