Let’s learn a different type of poker other than hold’em, five card stud, five card draw and Omaha Hold’em. Yes, pai gow poker. Now you should be wondering that pai gow sounds a little Chinese; yes you’re correct this game is a combination of the Chinese game pai-gow and our very own Yankee poker. Surely this is not 1 of the most well-liked types of poker but still it’s widely bet. It is usually played by up to seven gamblers.

It’s bet with 1 deck of fifty-two cards, including a joker. Interestingly, the joker may be utilized only as an ace, to finish a straight, a flush, a straight flush, or a royal flush. The significant element here to keep in mind is other than the normal ranking of hands we have 1 more winning hand which is "5 Aces" (five aces which includes the joker). Amazingly, five aces defeat all other hands including royal flush.

Every player is dealt 7 cards. The cards are set up to form two hands; a 2 card hand and a five card hand. The five card hand has to rank higher or be equal to the two card hand. Finally both of your hands need to rank greater than both of your opponents hands (each 5 and two card hands). Further the two card hand can merely have 2 combinations; 1 pair and high card.

After the cards are arranged in to two hands, they are placed on the table face down. Once you lay them down, you may not handle them. The dealer will flip over his cards and make his hands. Each gamblers hand is compared to the dealer’s hands. If the player wins one hand and manages to lose the other, this is recognized as "push" and no money is exchanged. If croupier wins equally hands then they captures the gamblers wager and the other way around. Now what if there is certainly a tie, the only advantage with the dealer here is they wins all ties.

Soon after the hand is wagered, the following person clock-wise becomes the croupier and the subsequent hand is wagered. The big downside to this game is that there’s no talent required and you rely too much on fortune. Also the odds are inadequate in comparison to betting with a pot.
