Double-hand Poker is a modern game with ancient origins. Built on the ancient Chinese domino game and the current American adaptation of poker, Pai Gow poker joins the eastern with the west in a wonderful game for early level gamblers.

Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the gambler versus the dealer, not like most other poker games that gamblers wager against other gamblers. By gambling against the dealer, starting players don’t need to be concerned about other, more knowledgeable players winning their cash.

One more Pai Gow edge is the fairly slow game play, newcomers will be able to take their time and strategize while not needing to make hasty choices.

It is also much simpler to wager on for a long time with just a tiny amount of money after all, to lose, both of your hands has to be under both of the dealer’s hands.

Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the regular 52-card standard deck and a single joker. The gambler is dealt 7 cards faces showing and the house receives seven cards faces hidden.

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