Pai Gow Poker Rules
Let us learn a different type of poker other than Texas holdem, 7 card stud, five card draw and Omaha Holdem. Yes, pai gow poker. Now you need to be wondering that pai gow sounds a little Chinese; yes you are right this casino game is really a blend of the Chinese game pai gow and our very own US poker. Certainly this is not 1 of the most popular forms of poker but still it is widely bet. It can be wagered by up to seven gamblers.
It is wagered with one deck of fifty-two cards, plus a joker. Curiously, the joker can be used only as an ace, to complete a straight, a flush, a straight flush, or a royal flush. The crucial element here to keep in mind is aside from the usual rating of hands we have one more winning hand that’s "5 Aces" (5 aces such as the joker). Surprisingly, five aces defeat all other hands including royal flush.
Every single gambler is dealt seven cards. The cards are set up to form 2 hands; a 2 card hand and a 5 card hand. The five card hand must rank greater or be equal to the 2 card hand. Finally each of your hands have to rank greater than each of your oppositions hands (both 5 and two card hands). Additionally the two card hand can just have 2 combinations; one pair and high card.
Following the cards are set up in to 2 hands, they are positioned on the table face down. As soon as you place them down, you may not touch them. The dealer will flip over his cards and make their hands. Each and every gamblers hand is compared to the dealer’s hands. If the player is victorious on 1 hand and manages to lose the other, this is identified as "push" and no money is won or lost. If croupier wins equally hands then he/she captures the players wager and the opposite way round. Now what if there is a tie, the only advantage with the dealer here is they is victorious on all ties.
Soon after the hand is wagered, the next person clock-wise becomes the croupier and the following hand is bet. The big drawback to this casino game is that there is certainly no talent required and you depend too much on good fortune. Also the odds are bad compared to playing with a pot.
