In pai gow poker, it is important to remember that you have to form 2 hands out of the total of 7 cards. This might get a bit of getting used to, especially if you play other poker variants a lot. Here are some tips regarding your hands in pai gow poker.
Build your best two card hand
You have to build two hands – the 5 card hand and the 2 card hand. More often than not, players tend to focus on the 5 card hand alone. Though the 5 card hard is very important, you cannot discount your 2 card hand. After all, the best position that you can be in is to have the highest hands – both hands. So do not make the mistakes of trying to make the best 5 card hand at the expense of your 2 card hand.
Do not play a full house
If you merely look at the surface of things, you might think that a full hand will get you a definite win. Then again, you have to think of your 2 card hand. The chances are that if you make a full house with your 5 cards, you will not have a pair for your 2 card hand. You will only most likely have a high card hand, which will have a higher chance of losing to the banker’s 2 card hand. This is the perfect example of paying attention to your 2 card hand and not only to your 5 card hand.
