Double-hand Poker is a modern game with ancient origins. Founded on the ancient Chinese domino game and the modern American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker bands together the eastern with the west in a great game for beginner level gamblers.
Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the player vs. the house, unlike nearly all other poker games that gamblers bet with other players. By betting against the dealer, new players don’t need to fret about other, more knowledgeable people taking their moolla.
An additional Pai Gow edge is the fairly leisurely game play, novices are able to take their time and plan while not needing to make frenzied choices.
It is also much simpler to wager on for an extended time with basically a little bit of money seeing as, to not win, both of your hands has to be under both of the dealer’s hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the regular 52-card basic deck and a single joker. The player is assigned seven cards faces showing and the house is given seven cards face down.
A five card hand and a two card hand have to be put together from the 7 cards, the 5 card hand has to be stronger than the two card hand. To succeed, a player is required to have both of his hand values to be better than the dealer’s.
