Pai Gow is based on an old Chinese dominos game that was later converted into poker for those who prefer cards. Today, you can find it in online and land-based casinos, and it is played with a traditional 52-card deck. Learning more about the Pai Gow card game can help you enjoy the time you spend playing, and it may even boost your winnings, too.

What is Pai Gow Poker and How Does It Compare to Other Poker

Pai Gow puts the player against the dealer with a 52-card deck plus the Joker. After betting, both you and the dealer receive seven cards; your cards are face-up while the dealer's cards are face-down. You must divide those seven cards into one hand with five cards and another hand with two cards, and the former must rank higher than the latter in order to win the bet. All wins are even money Pai Gow.

The Pai Gow card game is different from other forms of poker namely because the player does not compete with other players at the table. You will only compete against the house. What's more, in almost every Pai Gow poker casino, there is a significant house edge of between 2.5% and 2.7% when using a simplified strategy. Many other poker games have a much lower house edge, and rather than playing against the house, you will play against other people.

Pai Card

When playing Pai Gow, there are a few tips to keep in mind to help you get the most out of your experience and win against the house more frequently.

  • Study the hand ranks - Your goal is to separate your cards into hands that rank higher than the dealer's hand, so understanding the various ranks - starting with Straight, Flush, Straight Flush and Royal Flush - will help you make better choices.
  • The larger hand must be the stronger one - When building your hand, remember that the five-card one must always rank higher than the smaller two-card one. Otherwise, you will lose that bet.
  • Practice at home by yourself - Before you start playing for real money, get out a deck of cards or find a free game online and practice. This is the best way to familiarize yourself with the game and grow more comfortable with it.

Choosing the Right Casino that Offers Table Games

Most online casinos offer table games, but Pai Gow is not quite as popular as other forms of poker, which means not all casinos have it. After narrowing down your list to actual Pai Gow poker casinos, the next step is to look at the overall house edge. If this at or below 2.7%, take a look at the table limits to make sure they fit within your betting strategy. Finally, choose the Pai Gow poker casino that will give you the best bonus for table games, which can help you grow your bankroll a great deal as you play.

Types of Casino Poker Code Promos

When looking for codes that can help you increase your available funds, the codes available to you will depend on your status with the venue. If you are a new player, you may be given anywhere from $5 to $50 to play for free, though you won't be able to cash out any winnings until you've met the venue's wagering requirements. As an existing casino patron, check your emails for various table game promotions and take advantage of any loyalty codes that may be available to you, as well.

The Pai Gow card game is not nearly as popular as other options like Texas Hold'em, but it is a favorite among those who play it, and with the right strategy, you can easily walk away a winner. Be sure to take advantage of the best bonuses available to increase your winnings and remember that practice always makes perfect when it comes to games of strategy.

Rules for Si Se Pai

Introduction

In Chinese they are called 'Si Se Pai', which means Four Color Cards. They were used by the lower class to play games, and are intended to be easy and cheap to make, especially since gambling was/is illegal and there was a need for cards that could be disposed easily. Its cousins, Mahjong, Xiangqi (Chinese Chess), and Go are games that have more expensive sets. It is because of the lower class connection that the rules are seldom written down -- it is an oral tradition.

I learned this game from watching my parents and aunts and uncles play. Almost every time I play with my parents, I learn a new rule. Since the rules are never written down, during game play, we would encounter new situations. I think it depends a lot on who is playing. Also, a lot of the rules are mainly etiquette rules. So according to the real rules it's perfectly all right to do something, but it may not be something you 'should' do. If you are gambling, there are also penalties involved when someone is caught violating a rule.

The Deck

The deck consists of 112 cards. Like the name of the game, they come in four colors: Green ; White; Yellow; Red

There are 7 types of cards, which are the same characters as in Chinese Chess:

General/King

Guard/Advisor

Elephant/Minister

Chariot/Rook

Horse/Cavalry

Firecracker/Cannon

Footman/Pawn

Of each type, there are 4 of each color, which makes 28 cards per color. During game play, you'll need to be able to recognize the character and color of the card.

The Object of the Game

The object of the game is similar to gin - create a winning 'hand', where every card belongs to a group. Groups can be anywhere from 1 to 4 cards. You are 20 cards, but a winning hand has 21. Each card can be counted in only 1 group. For example, you cannot use the same Horse card to be both in a pair and in a 'Field Group'.

Zi Pai Card Game

1 card:

  • Only a King counts as a group by itself

2 cards:

  • Pair: 2 identical cards both in character and color. Except for Kings don't really count as pairs.

3 cards: There are a lot of these.

  • Triple: 3 identical cards both in character and color. Again, Kings don't need to be in triplets. There are some special rules pertaining to being dealt a triplet that I will explain later.
  • Command Group: A King, Guard, and Elephant all of the same color.
  • Field Group: A Chariot, Horse, and Firecracker all of the same color.
  • 3-Footman Group: This is different from a triplet group of 3 Footmen because they do not need to be of the same color. In fact, they need to be all different colors. For example, having 2 Red and 1 White would not count as a group.
For some reason, I tend to think of a traveling army, where one travel group would be a king, riding on an elephant, protected by his guards (or a king surrounded by guards and advisors). The other group is horse drawn carriages, carrying firecrackers. Then, there are the miscellaneous soldiers traveling on foot. That is just something I came up with to make it easier for me to remember. You can make your own.

4 cards:

  • Quad: 4 identical cards both in character and color. There is a special rule pertaining to being dealt a quad I will explain later.
  • 4-Footman Group: 4 Footman cards, one of each color.

Dealing

This game is usually played with 4 people. Sometimes we play with 3, but it is pretty uninteresting to play with only 2. I've never tried to play with more than 4. Like Mahjong, having 4 players balances it out somehow, each player representing one of the four winds. You should have a flat playing surface big enough to have a draw pile in the middle, playing ground in front of each player, and playing ground for discard piles between players. The 4 players should all sit facing each other.

First, shuffle the cards and choose a dealer. We usually shuffle by tossing them around and then trying to put them back into a stack. It is impossible to shuffle like you would a regular deck of cards. After you put them into a stack, you can cut them a few times. The person sitting in front of the dealer makes the final cut.

Dealing from the top, the dealer should give himself 6 cards, then continue around counter-clockwise, giving each person 5 cards at a time until the dealer has 21, and everyone else has 20. This is because the dealer starts the game by discarding a card. The rest of the cards are called the Draw Pile and placed in the middle. Draws are always taken from the top of the Draw Pile. Alternatively, you can deal 20 cards to everyone and have the dealer start the game by drawing from the pile. (Since the card drawn is always shown to everyone, there is a difference!)

Players should hold their cards in a fan so that other players cannot see what they have. It takes practice to be able to hold all the cards. Usually, I hold the cards by one end in a pile facing me, and use my other hand to fan it out. If you want to set aside cards that are already in groups and do not anticipate using them during game play, you should put them face down.

Before the Play Begins

Rules to note and observe before starting game play:

If you were dealt 4 identical cards (a quad), you must display them in your playing area. For scoring purposes, you might want to place them at the top, away from other groups you will be displaying later during game play.

If you were dealt 3 identical cards (a triplet), you must announce that you have a triplet, without revealing which card it is. Sometimes, depending on how formal you want to play, players are required to place a marker (could be any object, like a coin) in his display area to indicate that he is holding a triplet in his hand. Display one marker per triplet.

Also, be aware that when dealt, and only when dealt, triplets canNOT be split up. For example, if you were dealt 3 White Horses, you cannot make a grouping of 2 White Horses and use the other 1 White Horse to make a 'Field Group'. This means that if the fourth card appears at any time during game play, you will be forced to make a Quad grouping.

Playing

Play begins with the dealer and continues counter clockwise. A turn will generally consist of obtaining a card, either by drawing it from the Draw Pile, taking it from the Discard Pile, or Stealing it. A turn always ends by discarding a card into the Discard Pile face up, except when winning. Cards are discarded to the player on your right so that there is one Discard Pile per player.

Draw a card by flipping over the top card on the Draw Pile so that everyone can see it. This card must be used or discarded. It cannot be saved.

Take a card from the Discard Pile by using the top card. This card cannot be discarded or saved.

You can steal a card that someone has drawn or discarded in 3 situations:

  • If that's the card you need to win.
  • If that's the card you need to make a Quad. In fact, remember that you are forced to do this.
  • If that's the card you need to make a Triplet unless it's a King. While you are allowed to steal a King to make a quad, or to win, you cannot steal a King to make a triplet. If you decide to pass on making a Triplet, you should announce it.
Priority goes to the winning situation. If more than one person can use that card to win, priority goes to the person who drew the card, or to whom it was discarded and then counter-clockwise from there. Players are expected to pay attention to game play and call out right away when he wants to steal a card so that others do not start using it. It is considered very rude to steal after a player uses the card and finishes his turn.

To use a card, place it in your display area and add other cards from your hand (if needed) to create a proper group. Once a group is created, it cannot be changed or added to. Generally, cards in a group are placed in a vertical column such that the newly obtained card is at the top of the column (bottom of the pile).

Notice that if played correctly, once a card is face up it should never go back into the hand. All cards obtained in a turn must be used immediately or discarded. You win if all 21 cards are in groups. You cannot win after discarding a card; you would have only 20 cards.

Card

During game play, it is wise to observe which cards are played and discarded. Watch to see which cards are still available. Be careful when introducing a new card. When gambling, there are many penalties involved with playing a card that allows someone to win.

Scoring

Pairs get no points.

The total number of points should always be an odd number. If the number of points is not odd, then the player probably does not have the right number of cards, or the right combinations.

The winner gets to count all the cards for points. Some people double the winner's points if he has a quad. Everyone else gets to count points they received from being dealt triplets or quads.

When gambling, there are many ways to pay each other. In some situations, the loser (the person who played the card that caused someone to win) is penalized by having to pay on behalf of the other 2 non-winners. Everyone has to pay the winner. Sometimes, the non-winners also pay each other depending on the points. Actually, it is possible for a non-winner (if dealt many triplets/quads) to have more points than the winner (if the winner has mostly 0 point pairs). I'm not really sure what happens here. Maybe there is a winning bonus. Also, if the dealer mis-deals or if the winner does not have an odd score, they are penalized (for wasting everybody's time) by paying some token amount to everyone. I'm not really sure about the details since I don't actually play to gamble.
