Description and Objective
Pai Gow Poker is a card game played with a 53-card deck a standard deck of 52 cards and one Joker. In this version of Pai Gow Poker, the banker (or house) always plays as the dealer and covers all bets, and the player only competes against the dealer. The player receives seven cards, which must then be “set” or split into two poker hands: a five-card hand and a two-card hand. Once split, the player’s two hands are compared with the dealer’s two hands to determine the winner. The bank pays the winner - minus a 5% commission - and the game ends.
