Double-hand Poker is a cutting-edge game with old origins. Built on the ancient Chinese domino game and the current American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker combines the far east with the western in a fantastic game for starting players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the player vs. the dealer, not like almost all other poker games that gamblers compete with other gamblers. By competing against the dealer, new players do not have to worry about any other, more experienced gamblers winning their $$$$.
One more Pai Gow edge is the relatively slow game pace, beginners will be able to take their time and strategize while not having to make quick decisions.
It’s also simpler to participate in for a very long time with basically a small amount of cash seeing as, to not win, each of your hands has to be lower than each of the casino’s hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the customary 52-card standard deck and one joker. The player is given seven cards faces showing and the casino gets 7 cards faces hidden.
One 5 card hand and one two card hand need to be put together from the 7 cards, the 5 card hand must be stronger than the two card hand. To win, a player needs both of his hand values to be higher than the casino’s.
