Pai Gow Poker
Pai Gow StrategyPlayers that are use to regular poker and play Pai Gow poker tend to forget that in this game you win the pot only if both your front and your back hands are winning hands. Getting all excited over having a royal flush is nice, but if your two-card hand is 2 and 3, you will not win the pot. If, for example, you have a pair of 8 and a Jack three of a kind, they should be split up between the two hands, even though by doing so you lose a full house hand. When having the option of making two average ranked hands or one strong hand and one weak hand, the second option might be wiser to take. This way you are playing it safe, because chances are it will be a push, and you won't lose your money. Go for the two average hands, the bigger the chances of losing that hand.A pair in the low hand and a three of a kind in the high hand will usually win the game. The higher these cards rank, the smaller the chances that the dealer hands will beat your hands. On average, a player who plays ten hands of Pai Gow will win three hands, lose three hands and push four hands. (This assuming that he knows how to play the game correctly!)
