Double-hand Poker is a cutting-edge game with ancient origins. Founded on the ancient Chinese domino game and the modern American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker joins the east with the west in an excellent game for starting gamblers.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the gambler versus the dealer, unlike the majority of other poker games that players bet against other players. By wagering against the dealer, beginning players do not need to be concerned about other, more advanced people winning their money.
A further Pai Gow edge is the fairly leisurely game pace, newcomers are able to take their time and plan while not having to make frenzied choices.
It is also much simpler to enjoy for a long time with just a tiny bit of cash since, to lose, each of your hands must be under both of the houses hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the familiar 52-card basic deck and one joker. The player is dealt 7 cards face up and the dealer is dealt 7 cards faces hidden.
One five card hand and one 2 card hand must be made from the 7 cards, the 5 card hand has to be better than the 2 card hand. To win, a player is required to have both of his hand values to be better than the houses.
