How to Play Pai Gow Poker

The game of poker is very famous all around the world and it has several forms. Also in China, there is a popular gambling game called as the Pai Gow. The pai gow poker hence can be deduced, to be the mixture of pai gow and poker game. It can be said that Americanization of pai gow has resulted in pai gow poker. The pai gow poker unlike the normal poker will have 7 cards. Also it is called as the double hand poker. The game has the betting system and regulations similar to that of a normal poker but the game play is the thing that differs here.

The cards will be chosen into two hands namely five hands and a two hand. The five hands can be considered as a separate poker and the two hand the other. The major condition is that the value of five hands should always be higher than the two hands. Another thing is that four cards must be kept without using, even if any number of players is playing.

A number is chosen from one to seven, randomly by rolling a die. The deal begins from that particular position. The transport is normally counter clockwise. The five card set or hand follows the rule of a normal poker. The point system and pay out system is similar to normal poker. The hand with most matches wins. Similarly the game progresses on with further betting and the player with maximum points can cash out in the end.
