Pai Gow Poker is a current game with ancient origins. Founded on the old Chinese tile game and the modern American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker joins the far east with the wild west in an excellent game for early level gamblers.

Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the gambler vs. the dealer, not like almost all other poker games that gamblers bet against other players. By competing against the dealer, new players do not need to be concerned about other, more skillful gamblers winning their cash.

A further Pai Gow benefit is the generally leisurely game play, newcomers will be able to take their time and strategize without needing to make hasty decisions.

It is also easier to play for a long time with basically a little bit of money since, to lose, both of your hands has to be under each of the houses hands.

Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the familiar 52-card common deck and one joker. The gambler is dealt seven cards face up and the croupier is given 7 cards faces hidden.

A 5 card hand and a two card hand must be put together from the seven cards, the 5 card hand must be higher than the two card hand. To succeed, a player is required to have both of his hand values to be better than the houses.
