Beginners Course of Action for Pai Gow Poker
Wednesday, 21. April 2010
Pai Gow Poker is a modern game with ancient origins. Built on the ancient Chinese tile game and the current American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker combines the east with the wild west in a wonderful game for starting players.
Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the player versus the croupier, not like most other poker games that gamblers compete against other players. By competing against the dealer, beginner players do not have to be concerned about any other, more skillful individuals taking their money.
An additional Pai Gow benefit is the generally leisurely game play, novices are able to take their time and strategize without having to make quick choices.
It is also easier to gamble on for a long time with only a tiny bit of cash seeing as, to not win, both of your hands has to be under each of the houses hands.
Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the familiar 52-card standard deck and one joker. The gambler is dealt seven cards face up and the casino receives seven cards face down.
A five card hand and a 2 card hand must be put together from the seven cards dealt, the five card hand must be stronger than the 2 card hand. To succeed, a player is required to have both of his hand values to be larger than the dealer’s.
