  My friends and I were looking for the rules to this game called Pai Gow poker when I found your site on the internet. We got the rules from your site and we played and I lost, but then later, I got back online and practiced at your internet casino and then I played my friends again, and guess what?

Rules

Here are the rules for those who want to know how to play Pai Gow Poker. Please note that the rules apply to the online version of Pai Gow Poker. As in most forms of Poker, the game begins with the players placing their bets. The dealer gives each player seven cards. Each player is to arrange his cards into one hand of 5 cards and one hand of 2 cards. The dealer gets his own cards, and is also required to form two hands. The hand formed from 5 cards is the high hand, while the hand made from 2 cards is the low hand. Your high hand has to be of a higher value than your low. The key to winning at Pai Gow Poker is for your two hands to be of greater value than the dealer's two hands. While trying to arrange your cards properly, you may find it easier to click on the icon labeled House Way, so that the computer arranges the cards for you automatically. While Pai Gow Poker does use the same basic combinations as traditional poker, there are some important differences. To begin with, Pai Gow Poker employs a deck of 53 cards rather than 52.
