Double-hand Poker is a current game with old origins. Based on the old Chinese domino game and the modern American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker marries the far east with the west in a great game for beginning level players.

Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the player versus the croupier, unlike nearly all other poker games that gamblers compete against other gamblers. By betting against the dealer, new players don’t need to be concerned about other, more experienced players winning their money.

An additional Pai Gow advantage is the fairly leisurely game play, novices will be able to take their time and strategize without having to make frenzied choices.

It is also simpler to bet on for an extended time with just a tiny amount of cash seeing as, to lose, each of your hands has to be lower than both of the casino’s hands.

Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the regular 52-card standard deck and one joker. The player is given seven cards face up 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 dealt, the five card hand must be better than the 2 card hand. To succeed, a player is required to have both of his hand values to be better than the casino’s.
