Pai-Gow Poker - 52 Cards and the Joker

Pai-Gow poker is an online casino game that is easy and fun. The goal in Pai-Gow poker is simply to make two poker hands that beat the dealer's hands. The player gets 7 cards that he uses to make a five-card poker hand (high hand) and a two-card hand (low hand). The game of Pai-Gow poker is played with 52 cards and a joker. The joker can be used as an Ace or it can be used to complete a straight or flush. In Pai-Gow casino poker you also pay a 5% commission on winning bets.

If both your hands are better than the dealer's hands, you win, if both lose, you lose. If you lose one hand and the other hand is a tie you lose. You also lose if both hands are ties. If you win one hand and tie the other hand it is a tie. It is also a tie if you win one hand and lose one hand. The reason that Pai-Gow poker is so popular is that it is simple. There are very few decisions to make. You just decide how much to bet and how to set your two hands. The strategy for setting your hand is to make the highest 2-card hand that is less than your best five-card hand. Pairs generally win the 2-card hands, and two-pairs often win the 5-card hands.

The computer is not going to let you set your low poker hand better than your 5-card hand anyway, so your decisions are really easy. The house advantage in Pai-Gow poker is really not that high which makes it a great game to play. There are three outcomes in Pai-Gow poker. The player wins both hands, the dealer wins both hands or there is some sort of a tie. The percentages favor at tie at 41% while the dealer winning both hands is 29.91% with the player winning both at 28.61%. The great thing about Pai-Gow poker is that you get a lot of action for very little money. Very often you are going to tie which can mean money is returned and that means longer play. Anytime you are in action for a long time it is usually a good thing with online gambling and that is exactly the case with Pai-Gow poker.
