Double-hand Poker is a cutting-edge game with ancient origins. Based on the old Chinese tile game and the current American version of poker, Pai Gow poker bands together the east with the west in a great game for beginning level players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the gambler vs. the dealer, not like most other poker games that players wager against other players. By wagering against the dealer, new players do not have to fret about other, more advanced individuals winning their cash.
An additional Pai Gow advantage is the fairly slow game pace, novices should be able to take their time and strategize while not needing to make frenzied choices.
It is also simpler to participate in for a very long time with only a small bit of cash since, to not win, each of your hands has to be lower than each of the casino’s hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the familiar 52-card basic deck and one joker. The gambler is assigned seven cards faces showing and the house gets seven cards faces hidden.
One 5 card hand and a two card hand must be made from the 7 cards dealt, the 5 card hand has to be higher than the 2 card hand. To succeed, a player needs both of his hand totals to be better than the dealer’s.
