Pai Gow Poker (Face-Up)
See every card the dealer holds. Split your seven into two hands and beat both of theirs. Betarama Face-Up Pai Gow Poker gives you full visibility, a Fortune Bonus side bet paying up to 8000:1, and Millionaire Mode for a shot at $1,000,000 on every hand.
How to Play
Seven cards from a 53-card deck (52 + Joker). Build a 5-card high hand and a 2-card low hand. High hand must outrank low hand. Beat the dealer on both for 1:1. Split results push. Lose both and your ante is gone.
The Joker completes straights and flushes in the high hand, otherwise it is an Ace. Low hand Joker is always an Ace. The dealer plays face-up, so you know exactly what you need to beat.
