Double-hand Poker is a cutting-edge game with ancient ancestry. Based on the ancient Chinese domino game and the current American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker joins the far east with the wild west in an excellent game for new players.

Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the player vs. the dealer, not like the majority of other poker games that gamblers bet against other players. By wagering against the dealer, starting players do not need to be concerned about any other, more advanced players taking their $$$$.

One more Pai Gow edge is the fairly leisurely game play, newcomers will be able to take their time and strategize while not needing to make hasty selections.

It’s also simpler to gamble on for a very long time with basically a tiny amount of cash since, to lose, each of your hands has to be under each of the dealer’s hands.

Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the familiar 52-card basic deck and a single joker. The player is given seven cards face up and the casino is dealt seven cards face down.

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