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 joins the east with the western in an excellent game for beginner level players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the gambler vs. the casino, not like nearly all other poker games that players bet with other players. By competing against the dealer, beginner players don’t have to fret about any other, more knowledgeable players winning their moolla.
A further Pai Gow advantage is the fairly slow game pace, rookies can take their time and scheme while not having to make quick decisions.
It is also easier to participate in for a long time with basically a small bit of cash seeing as, to not win, each of your hands must be lower than both of the houses hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the customary 52-card standard deck and one joker. The player is dealt 7 cards face up and the house receives 7 cards faces hidden.
A five card hand and one 2 card hand must be put together from the seven cards, the 5 card hand must be stronger than the two card hand. To win, a player is required to have both of his hand totals to be higher than the houses.
