How to Play Pai Gow Poker (Face Up)

Pai Gow Poker deals seven cards to both you and the dealer. You split your cards into a five-card "high" hand and a two-card "low" hand. Both of your hands must beat both of the dealer's hands to win. In this Face Up variant, the dealer's cards are visible before you set your hands.

How to Play

  1. Place your bet. Optionally place a Fortune Bonus side bet.
  2. Seven cards are dealt to you and the dealer. The dealer's cards are face up.
  3. Arrange your cards into a five-card hand (must be the stronger hand) and a two-card hand.
  4. If both your hands beat the dealer's corresponding hands, you win 1:1 (minus 5% commission).
  5. If you win one and lose one, the hand pushes.
  6. If the dealer wins both, you lose.

Fortune Bonus

  • Pays based on your seven-card hand strength, regardless of how you set your hands or whether you beat the dealer.

Millionaire Mode

An optional side bet. Qualifying hands pay from the Millionaire prize pool, up to $1,000,000.
