Walking through the table games section, you will often see players relaxed and chatting around the Pai Gow Poker table.
Because of the unique way hands are scored, you will frequently tie the dealer, making it a very low-volatility game.
After placing your bet, the dealer distributes exactly seven cards to every player and to themselves.
You must arrange your cards into a five-card back hand and a two-card front hand, following traditional poker rankings.
The strategy in Pai Gow revolves entirely around making your two-card hand as strong as legally possible without fouling.
When dealt a hand with no pairs (a ‚Pai Gow‘), you put your highest card in the back and your next two highest in the front.
By learning how to balance your high and low hands perfectly, you can enjoy one of the best table games in the casino.
