Novice Tactics for Double-Hand Poker
Sunday, 17. January 2016
Pai Gow Poker is a current game with ancient origins. Based on the ancient Chinese tile game and the modern American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker marries the eastern with the western in an excellent game for starting gamblers.
Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the player versus the house, unlike almost all other poker games that players compete against other players. By wagering against the dealer, beginning players don’t have to fret about other, more skillful gamblers winning their moolla.
One more Pai Gow edge is the fairly slow game pace, newcomers are able to take their time and scheme while not having to make hasty choices.
It’s also much simpler to play for a very long time with only a tiny amount of cash since, to lose, each of your hands needs to be under both of the dealer’s hands.
Pai Gow uses 53 cards; the familiar 52-card standard deck and one joker. The gambler is given 7 cards faces showing and the croupier gets seven cards faces hidden.
A 5 card hand and a 2 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 needs both of his hand values to be larger than the houses.
