Beginners Tactics for Pai Gow Poker

by Mayra on Aug.02, 2025, under Poker

Pai Gow Poker is a cutting-edge game with old ancestry. Founded on the old Chinese domino game and the current American version of poker, Pai Gow poker bands together the east with the wild west in a wonderful game for starting gamblers.

Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the gambler vs. the casino, unlike most other poker games that gamblers wager against other gamblers. By gambling against the dealer, new players don’t need to worry about other, more experienced players taking their moolla.

Another Pai Gow edge is the relatively leisurely game pace, rookies should be able to take their time and scheme without having to make frenzied choices.

It’s also easier to gamble on for a very long time with basically a small bit of money since, to not win, each of your hands must be under both of the dealer’s hands.

Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the regular 52-card common deck and a single joker. The player is assigned seven cards face up and the casino is given 7 cards face down.

One five card hand and a 2 card hand have to be put together from the seven cards, the five card hand has to be higher than the 2 card hand. To succeed, a player needs both of his hand totals to be better than the casino’s.
