Pai Gow is a centuries-old Chinese game that has been widely adopted in Asian countries, including Vietnam. It’s an ancient favorite that continues to be enjoyed in both online and traditional brick-and-mortar casinos.
Pai Gow is played with 32 Chinese dominoes and the objective of the game is to beat the dealer by creating two hands, one with five dominoes and one with two dominoes. All the dominoes used in the game have numerical values that are used for ranking the hands.
In order to win, a player must have his two hands ranked higher than the two hands of the dealer. The highest ranked hand consists of two tiles with a numerical value of 11, known as Gee Joon.
It is important to note that the game Pai Gow in Vietnam is only played against the dealer and not between the players.
