Pai Gow is a popular casino card game originating from Ancient China. It is the modern version of the Chinese domino game known as “Gai Gow” or “Tiu U”. The game combines elements of poker and the traditional domino game, making it a unique casino game. In Kuwait, Pai Gow is a highly popular game in mobile casinos.
The mobile version of Pai Gow found in Kuwait is very similar to the game as it is played in land-based casinos and online casinos in other countries. In this version, the player and the dealer are each handed seven cards. The player must place two hands of two and five cards each, and the dealer does the same. The five-card hand must rank higher than the two-card hand.
The rank of the cards is determined according to standard poker rankings, with the Ace being the highest and the two being the lowest. The player must beat the dealer’s two hands in order to win, and if both the player’s hands lose, they forfeit the bet. There are also some special hands, such as “Gong” and “Chow”, that allow the player to win even if their two hands lose individually.
