Pai Gow is a poker game that pits the gambler vs. the croupier, not like almost all other poker games that gamblers wager with other players. By betting against the dealer, beginning players do not need to fret about any other, more knowledgeable people winning their cash.

Pai Gow is played with 53 cards; the regular 52-card standard deck and a single joker. The player is assigned 7 cards face up and the dealer gets 7 cards face down.
