Double-hand Poker is a current game with ancient origins. Founded on the old Chinese tile game and the modern American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker combines the far east with the wild west in a fantastic game for new players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the gambler vs. the dealer, not like most other poker games that players compete with other gamblers. By betting against the dealer, starting players do not have to worry about other, more skillful people taking their $$$$.
An additional Pai Gow edge is the fairly slow game play, novices are able to take their time and scheme without needing to make hasty decisions.
It’s also much simpler to wager on for a long time with basically a tiny bit of money since, to not win, both of your hands needs to be lower than each of the houses hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the regular 52-card basic deck and one joker. The player is dealt 7 cards face up and the dealer receives seven cards faces hidden.
One five card hand and a two card hand need to be made from the 7 cards, the five card hand has to be higher than the two card hand. To succeed, a player needs both of his hand values to be better than the dealer’s.
