Pai Gow Poker is a modern game with old ancestry. Founded on the old Chinese tile game and the current American version of poker, Pai Gow poker marries the far east with the wild west in a wonderful game for new gamblers.

Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the gambler against the croupier, unlike most other poker games that gamblers wager with other players. By wagering against the dealer, beginning players don’t need to fret about other, more knowledgeable gamblers winning their money.

A further Pai Gow advantage is the generally slow game play, newcomers should be able to take their time and strategize while not needing to make hasty choices.

It’s also easier to play for a long time with only a little bit of money after all, to lose, both of your hands needs to be lower than both of the houses hands.

Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the familiar 52-card standard deck and a single joker. The player is assigned seven cards faces showing and the house gets 7 cards faces hidden.

One five card hand and one 2 card hand must be put together from the seven cards dealt, the 5 card hand has to be higher than the two card hand. To win, a player needs both of his hand totals to be larger than the casino’s.
