Double-hand Poker is a current game with old ancestry. Built on the ancient Chinese tile game and the modern American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker bands together the far east with the wild west in a great game for new players.

Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the gambler vs. the croupier, not like almost all other poker games that gamblers compete with other players. By playing against the dealer, beginning players don’t have to worry about other, more knowledgeable people taking their $$$$.

A further Pai Gow benefit is the relatively slow game pace, beginners can take their time and strategize without needing to make hasty selections.

It is also simpler to enjoy for an extended time with basically a little bit of cash seeing as, to not win, each of your hands must be under both of the dealer’s hands.

Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the familiar 52-card basic deck and one joker. The gambler is assigned 7 cards faces showing and the house gets seven cards face down.

A five card hand and a two card hand must be made from the 7 cards, the five card hand has to be better than the 2 card hand. To win, a player needs both of his hand totals to be higher than the dealer’s.
