Double-hand Poker is a modern game with ancient ancestry. Based on the ancient Chinese tile game and the modern American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker bands together the far east with the western in an awesome game for new gamblers.

Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the player vs. the casino, unlike the majority of other poker games that gamblers wager with other gamblers. By betting against the dealer, new players don’t need to worry about other, more experienced individuals taking their money.

A further Pai Gow benefit is the fairly slow game play, beginners can take their time and plan without needing to make quick decisions.

It is also simpler to gamble on for a very long time with basically a small amount of money after all, to lose, both of your hands needs to be lower than each of the casino’s hands.

Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the familiar 52-card standard deck and one joker. The gambler is assigned seven cards face up and the dealer gets 7 cards face down.

One 5 card hand and one 2 card hand have to be made from the seven cards, the five card hand must be better than the two card hand. To succeed, a player needs both of his hand totals to be higher than the dealer’s.
