Pai Gow Poker is a modern game with old origins. Founded on the ancient Chinese domino game and the modern American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker combines the eastern with the western in an excellent game for early level gamblers.

Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the player vs. the croupier, not like most other poker games that players bet against other gamblers. By betting against the dealer, beginning players don't need to worry about any other, more skillful gamblers taking their $$$$.

One more Pai Gow benefit is the fairly slow game pace, newcomers are able to take their time and scheme without having to make hasty decisions.

It is also easier to wager on for a very long time with only a tiny bit of cash seeing as, to lose, each of your hands must be lower than each of the casino's hands.

Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the normal 52-card common deck and one joker. The gambler is assigned 7 cards faces showing and the croupier gets 7 cards face down.

One 5 card hand and a 2 card hand must be made from the 7 cards, the 5 card hand must be better than the two card hand. To succeed, a player is required to have both of his hand values to be larger than the houses.
