Novice Strategy for Double-Hand Poker

May 3rd, 2016 by Averie Leave a reply »

Double-hand Poker is a modern game with ancient origins. Built on the old Chinese domino game and the current American version of poker, Pai Gow poker bands together the eastern with the west in a wonderful game for starting gamblers.

Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the player vs. the casino, unlike most other poker games that players compete against other players. By wagering against the dealer, beginning players don’t have to worry about other, more knowledgeable gamblers winning their mulla.

One more Pai Gow advantage is the fairly leisurely game pace, beginners should be able to take their time and scheme while not having to make quick decisions.

It is also simpler to bet on for an extended time with only a tiny amount of cash since, to lose, each of your hands has to be under both of the dealer’s hands.

Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the normal 52-card basic deck and one joker. The player is given seven cards face up and the house gets seven cards face down.

One 5 card hand and one 2 card hand must be made from the 7 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 better than the dealer’s.
