Pai Gow Poker is a modern game with ancient origins. Founded on the ancient Chinese tile game and the current American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker joins the east with the western in a wonderful game for starting players.

Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the player vs. the dealer, not like the majority of other poker games that gamblers compete against other gamblers. By betting against the dealer, beginning players do not have to fret about any other, more knowledgeable people winning their money.

One more Pai Gow advantage is the generally slow game pace, newcomers will be able to take their time and scheme while not needing to make quick selections.

It is also simpler to play for a very long time with only a little amount of cash after all, to lose, each of your hands needs to be lower than each of the houses hands.

Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the customary 52-card common deck and one joker. The player is dealt seven cards faces showing and the house gets 7 cards face down.

A 5 card hand and one 2 card hand have to be put together from the 7 cards, the five card hand has to be stronger than the two card hand. To win, a player needs both of his hand values to be higher than the houses.
