Newcomer Schemes for Pai Gow Poker
by Raegan on Tuesday, January 28th, 2025
Pai Gow Poker is a modern game with old ancestry. Built on the ancient Chinese tile game and the modern American version of poker, Pai Gow poker combines the east with the west in a wonderful game for early level players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the gambler vs. the casino, unlike most other poker games that gamblers bet with other gamblers. By betting against the dealer, new players don’t have to worry about other, more knowledgeable individuals taking their cash.
Another Pai Gow benefit is the generally slow game pace, newcomers should be able to take their time and scheme while not needing to make frenzied choices.
It’s also much simpler to wager on for a long time with basically a small amount of money since, to not win, both of your hands needs to 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 assigned 7 cards faces showing and the casino is given 7 cards faces hidden.
One 5 card hand and a 2 card hand must be put together from the 7 cards dealt, the five card hand has to be higher than the 2 card hand. To win, a player is required to have both of his hand totals to be larger than the dealer’s.
