Card Gambling

Popular card gambling games include blackjack, let it ride, and casino war. All these are casino table cards gambling games and each player is always betting against the dealer's hand. The hands of all the other players at the table do not affect each other. The outcome is only decided by looking at each individual hand in comparison to the dealers.

One of the lesser known casino Card Gambling games is Pai Gow Poker. This is a game in which each player receives seven cards. The idea is to make your best possible two card and five cards poker hands using all seven cards. One of the rules is that your five card hand has to be able to beat your two card hand.

The dealer also receives seven cards and arranges his best two poker hands. If you win one hand and lose the other, then it is a push and the net value gained is zero. If both of your hands are better than both of the dealer's hands, then you win and double your bet. Of course you are comparing your five card hand with the dealer's five card hand, as is the same with the two card hand.
This is actually a great card gambling game because you will tie the majority of the time. This means that you can play forever with a small stack in front of you. If you are in Las Vegas and you are looking to get cheap drinks, sit down at a Pai Gow table and let the cocktail waitress keep coming around while you play nice and slow.
