Double-hand Poker is a cutting-edge game with old origins. Based on the ancient Chinese domino game and the current American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker joins the far east with the west in an excellent game for beginner level gamblers.
Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the player against the croupier, not like most other poker games that players wager with other gamblers. By gambling against the dealer, beginning players do not need to fret about other, more experienced individuals winning their cash.
Another Pai Gow advantage is the fairly leisurely game pace, newcomers should be able to take their time and strategize while not having to make frenzied selections.
It’s also simpler to gamble on for a long time with only a tiny amount of money since, to not win, both of your hands must be lower than each of the houses hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the customary 52-card common deck and one joker. The player is assigned 7 cards face up and the dealer gets 7 cards face down.
One five card hand and one two card hand have to be made from the seven cards, the 5 card hand must be stronger than the two card hand. To win, a player needs both of his hand totals to be larger than the casino’s.
