Double-hand Poker is a cutting-edge game with ancient origins. Built on the old Chinese tile game and the modern American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker bands together the far east with the west in an excellent game for starting players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the player vs. the casino, unlike most other poker games that gamblers wager with other gamblers. By playing against the dealer, beginning players do not need to be concerned about other, more advanced gamblers taking their moolla.
Another Pai Gow advantage is the generally slow game play, novices are able to take their time and plan while not having to make frenzied selections.
It’s also much simpler to wager on for a long time with only a tiny bit of money seeing as, to not win, both of your hands must be under each of the casino’s hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the familiar 52-card standard deck and one joker. The gambler is assigned seven cards face up and the croupier receives seven cards faces hidden.
One 5 card hand and one two card hand must be put together from the 7 cards dealt, the 5 card hand has to be higher than the 2 card hand. To win, a player needs both of his hand totals to be larger than the houses.
