Novice Strategy for Double-Hand Poker
by Kole on November 20th, 2009
Pai Gow Poker is a cutting-edge game with ancient ancestry. Founded on the ancient Chinese domino game and the modern American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker joins the east with the western in a wonderful game for starting gamblers.
Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the player versus the croupier, unlike nearly all other poker games that players play against other gamblers. By playing against the dealer, beginning players do not need to worry about any other, more knowledgeable people winning their money.
A further Pai Gow edge is the generally leisurely game play, beginners can take their time and scheme while not having to make hasty decisions.
It’s also easier to bet on for a very long time with just a small bit of money seeing as, to not win, both of your hands needs to be lower than both of the dealer’s hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the familiar 52-card standard deck and one joker. The gambler is dealt 7 cards face up and the croupier is dealt 7 cards face down.
One five card hand and a two card hand have to be made from the seven cards, the five card hand must be stronger than the 2 card hand. To succeed, a player needs both of his hand totals to be better than the dealer’s.
