Double-hand Poker is a modern game with ancient ancestry. Built on the old Chinese domino game and the modern American version of poker, Pai Gow poker marries the east with the wild west in a wonderful game for early level players.

Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the gambler against the croupier, not like most other poker games that gamblers bet with other gamblers. By playing against the dealer, new players don’t have to worry about other, more experienced players winning their money.

An additional Pai Gow benefit is the fairly leisurely game pace, rookies can take their time and strategize without having to make frenzied selections.

It is also easier to enjoy for a very long time with basically a little bit of money after all, to not win, each of your hands has to be under each of the dealer’s hands.

Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the normal 52-card basic deck and one joker. The player is assigned 7 cards faces showing and the casino is given 7 cards face down.

A 5 card hand and one two card hand must be put together from the seven cards dealt, the five card hand has to be higher than the 2 card hand. To succeed, a player is required to have both of his hand values to be better than the casino’s.
