Pai Gow® Poker combines elements of the ancient Chinese game of Pai Gow with classic American poker. Many believe the game was originated by Chinese immigrants during the construction of the great American western railroad lines. In most American casinos, Pai Gow Poker is set up much like a traditional Blackjack game. Each hand is played against the dealer, and like Blackjack, Pai Gow Poker is a true game of skill. Expert players can swing the odds of the game dramatically in their favor. However, unlike Blackjack, in Pai Gow Poker the House takes 5% commission on winning bets. If you bet intelligently and play your hand well (and get some lucky cards, of course) you probably won't mind paying the House a small fee out of your big winnings!
