by Bo on Thursday, December 20th, 2018
Double-hand Poker is a current game with old origins. Founded on the ancient Chinese tile game and the modern American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker bands together the east with the west in an excellent game for starting players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the gambler versus the house, not like nearly all other poker games that gamblers bet with other players. By betting against the dealer, beginner players don’t have to be concerned about any other, more skillful individuals taking their mulla.
An additional Pai Gow edge is the relatively slow game play, newcomers can take their time and plan without having to make hasty selections.
It’s also much simpler to play for an extended time with only a small bit of money after all, to not win, both of your hands has to be under both of the houses hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the regular 52-card standard deck and a single joker. The gambler is assigned 7 cards faces showing and the casino is given seven cards faces hidden.
One 5 card hand and one two card hand need to be made from the 7 cards dealt, the 5 card hand has to be stronger than the two card hand. To win, a player needs both of his hand totals to be larger than the dealer’s.
