While it is a poker game, it is far less intimidating than sitting down at a live poker room game.
Today, Pai Gow Poker is a table game, increasing in popularity in many casinos around the country.
The Chinese word origin meant “make nine.” The conversion to a poker game happened around 1985 in a California Card Room. The game of Pai Gow originated in China more than a century ago and was played at that time with tiles, like Dominoes, and dice.
