Pai Gow Poker - opinions?

[-Slim-]

Hey guys, I played Pai Gow at a casino the other night, basically cause a friend forced me to, :lol: and I have to admit I had fun. Considering y'all are mostly gamblers, I thought I'd ask for any and all opinions you may have regarding this game. So go ahead, anything I should know, should I stay as far away as possible? Whats up with it?

5 card hand and 2 card hand, your 2 card hand cant be better than ur 5. its pretty simple, if you are flat betting each hand dont think you really have a chance of making any money over the long period. What i like to do is wait for the dealers to get a few nice hands in a row, then start increasing my bets each time till i lose.

great game and it gives the player one of the highest advantages out of any table game

Goodgame for value. Have to lose both hands to lose or win both to win.

House rakes 5% on all winning hands, dealer wins a push. you can be the dealer if you wish.

The game kicks ass. Its a bit intimidating at first, but easy to pick up quick if you have half a brain and know poker hands.

The game is much more laid back and there arent as many hands dealt per hour as a game like blackjack. Many pushes in this game.

This all helps cut down on the losses and allows you to receive more free drinks in Vegas before you have a chance to lose alll your money.

It's a good game to play if you don't have a lot of money and a lot of time to kill...

Played it a few times. It's ok, but like Kidman said, you're not coming home in a Brinks Truck !!

For a player that wants to give a Casino "Time" for Comps ....You can grind your way to a free room or Meal. :toast:
