How to Play Bonus Pai Gow Poker

Both the player and the Dealer are dealt seven cards that are divided into two hands. There is the Low Hand with two cards and the High Hand with five cards. If your High Hand and your Low Hand separately are higher than the Dealer's corresponding hands, then you win. If only one of your hands beats the Dealer's corresponding hand, then the game is a tie.

When you play Bonus Pai Gow Poker, you can either have the cards automatically arranged according to the House Way rules or you can manually arrange them yourself. To play a game of Bonus Pai Gow Poker, you click on the Chip Selector to select the chip size you want to bet. Then, you left-click the Betting Circle to select the amount you want to bet. To increase your bet you can left-click the betting circle selected and it will increase it by one chip; to reduce or remove a bet you can right-click the bet you want to reduce or remove, and it will decrease it by one chip. Next, click the Deal button and you and the Dealer will both be dealt seven cards. You are ready to begin to play and enjoy!

Now, click the two cards you want in the Low Hand. It's important to realize that if the value of the Low Hand is higher than the High Hand, then the selection is invalid. The system will inform you if your Low Hand is invalid.

Once you've selected your Low Hand, you can click the play button and your hand will be compared with the Dealer's hand. If you have a winning hand, you are paid according to the Payout Schedule and the win amount will be displayed in the Win box. If you don't have a winning hand, then the game is over and you can try again!

Now, there are a number of rules to keep in mind when playing Bonus Pai Gow Poker. As we mentioned, the Low Hand can not have a higher value than the High Hand. The 53rd card in this game is a Joker. It can only be used to complete a Straight, Flush, Straight Flush or Royal Flush. The Joker is considered the same as an Ace if it's used with other Aces, so you can use a Joker to make a pair with an Ace. If you and the Dealer both have high cards of the same value, the second highest value cards are compared. If your Low Hand value or your High Hand value is equal to the Dealer's, then the Dealer wins. If you and the Dealer have the same High Hand or Low Hand, it is called a Copy and the Dealer's hand wins. A Straight completed by a Ten, Jack, Queen, King and Ace is the highest ranking Straight. All other Straight hands are ranked according to their value and the highest ranking Straight wins the game.

You can choose to play the game in Regular or Expert Mode. To set the game to Expert Mode click the Expert button. The Expert Mode game buttons will then be displayed. Similarly, click the Regular button to set the game to Regular Mode. Note that when the Expert button is displayed, Regular Mode is enabled and when the Regular Mode is displayed, Expert Mode is enabled.

You can view the current game statistics by clicking on the Statistics button. This will reset to zero when you exit the game. If you want to change the Game Options, click the Options button. The Options dialog box will be displayed. Then choose the required Speed, Sound and AutoPlay settings. The Speed Settings allow you to choice the deal speed as slow, medium, fast or fastest. The Sound Settings allow you to switch off all sounds, game sounds, win sounds or background sounds. If you choose the Switch Off All Sounds option, then the other sound options are automatically disabled. Finally, the AutoPlay tab allows you to automatically play a selected number of consecutive hands without having to interact with the software. Now that's service! Click the OK button and your settings are saved and the Options dialog box is closed.
