If you are looking for a slow-paced, highly strategic game with a low house edge, Pai Gow Poker is the perfect choice.
The game is famous for its incredibly high number of 'pushes' (ties), meaning your bankroll will last a very long time.
Understanding the Deal and the Rules
Unlike traditional poker, the Joker can only be used to complete a straight or a flush, otherwise, it is always an Ace.
You must arrange your cards into a five-card back hand and a two-card front hand, following traditional poker rankings.
- The dealer must set their hand according to a strict set of casino rules called the 'House Way'
- If you are confused, you can always ask the dealer to set your hand according to the House Way for you
- Because tying is so common, the casino takes a 5% commission on all winning bets to maintain their house edge
Basic Strategy for Setting Your Cards
The strategy in Pai Gow revolves entirely around making your two-card hand as strong as legally possible without fouling.
If you are dealt two pairs, the general rule is to split them, putting the smaller pair in your two-card hand.
| Situation | Action | Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| You cannot figure out the best move | Ask dealer for the 'House Way' | Ensures you don't make a mathematical error |
| Four of a Kind (Jacks or better) | Split into two pairs | Creates two incredibly strong hands |
By learning how to balance your high and low hands perfectly, you can enjoy one of the best table games in the casino.
