Double-hand Poker is a modern game with ancient origins. Founded on the old Chinese domino game and the current American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker joins the east with the western in an excellent game for new players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the player against the croupier, not like the majority of other poker games that players play with other gamblers. By wagering against the dealer, starting players don’t need to fret about any other, more experienced individuals taking their money.
One more Pai Gow advantage is the fairly slow game play, beginners are able to take their time and plan without having to make hasty choices.
It is also much simpler to wager on for a very long time with basically a small amount of cash since, to not win, both of your hands must be under both of the houses hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the familiar 52-card standard deck and one joker. The gambler is dealt 7 cards faces showing and the house is given seven cards face down.
A 5 card hand and one 2 card hand have to be put together from the 7 cards, the 5 card hand has to be better than the two card hand. To succeed, a player is required to have both of his hand values to be higher than the houses.
