Novice Strategy for Double-Hand Poker

[ English ]

Pai Gow Poker is a current game with ancient origins. Built on the old Chinese tile game and the current American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker bands together the eastern with the wild west in a great game for new gamblers.

Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the player against the dealer, not like nearly all other poker games that players compete against other players. By competing against the dealer, new players do not have to worry about other, more knowledgeable individuals winning their moolla.

An additional Pai Gow edge is the relatively leisurely game pace, rookies are able to take their time and scheme without having to make frenzied decisions.

It is also easier to play for an extended time with just a little bit of money since, to lose, each of your hands must be under each of the casino’s hands.

Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the customary 52-card common deck and one joker. The gambler is given seven cards face up and the croupier is dealt 7 cards face down.

One 5 card hand and a 2 card hand need to be made from the seven cards dealt, the five card hand must be stronger than the 2 card hand. To win, a player is required to have both of his hand values to be better than the houses.
