Double-hand Poker is a current game with ancient origins. Founded on the ancient Chinese tile game and the current American variation of poker, Pai Gow poker combines the far east with the wild west in an awesome game for new players.

Pai Gow is a poker game that puts the gambler against the house, unlike almost all other poker games that players compete with other players. By betting against the dealer, beginning players don't need to fret about any other, more advanced gamblers winning their mulla.

An additional Pai Gow benefit is the fairly leisurely game play, beginners can take their time and strategize while not having to make hasty selections.

It's also much simpler to wager on for a very long time with only a tiny bit of money since, to lose, each of your hands has to be lower than 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 seven cards faces showing and the casino is given seven cards faces hidden.

One five card hand and a two card hand must be put together from the seven cards dealt, the 5 card hand has to be higher than the 2 card hand. To succeed, a player needs both of his hand values to be larger than the houses.
