Online casino China Style The Casino Cashier at Amber Coast

29 Oct 2006

Chinese games are very popular at online casino sites. Pai Gow, a game that was first introduced by smaller online casino sites four years ago, is fast growing in popularity with many online casino players. Pai Gow is based on a traditional Chinese domino game. It operates at a slower pace than most other online casino games. The game of Pai Gow is played against the banker rather than the house, using one deck of cards and a joker. The joker can be used as an ace or to complete a flush, a straight or a straight flush. Pai Gow is following in the footsteps of other Chinese online casino games such as keno and mah jong which are also extremely popular amongst online casino players.

Online casino fans begin a game of Pai Gow by placing an initial bet and operating an online feature that rolls a dice to determine which player receives the first set of seven cards. The players then arrange their cards into a five card hand and a two card hand. The best two card hand is a pair of Aces. Online casino players then compare their hands with the banker's. If the player wins both hands, he receives even money. However, if the player loses one hand and wins one hand, the result is a push and the online casino earns a five percent commission. If the banker wins both hands, the casino player loses his entire wager.

Chinese games are so popular with online casino players that recently, the online casino software provider announced that it intends to provide no less than eleven casino sites with new versions of mah jong especially for the Asian market.
