Video poker made its entry to the casino in the seventies; and is today one of the most popular forms of gambling. For the player who likes a game of skill, a low house edge, the possibility of large wins, and the anonymity of playing alone there is nothing else that can compare to video poker. Asia Poker is a variant of Pai Gow Poker. The game uses a 53-card deck. The additional card is a joker that works the same as it does in Pai Gow Poker. It may be used to complete a straight, flush or straight flush. Otherwise, it is an ace. Asia Poker may be found in Las Vegas at Gold Coast and Paris. The minimum at Gold Coast is $10.

How Will I Know Which No-Deposit Bonus to Claim?If you find an online casino that offers multiple no-deposit bonuses always go for the one that matches your skills and interests. Spending your no-deposit bonus cash at the casino table will not do you any good if you only have superficial knowledge about the rules and strategies.The same goes about wagering your bonus on slots just because they have a 100% contribution rate. Although live games often have a reduced contribution percentage, they are a much better choice for an experienced blackjack or poker player than any game of chance.Other BonusesCasinos also offer cash bonuses without any wagering or with the deposit, but that the most common way to get these types of bonuses is, of course, free spins. Here are some:Free Spins Deposit BonusIn this type of slot promotion bonus, free spins are issued with a deposit bonus. However, the catch here is that you need to be on the lookout and ensure that what you were signing up for is worth it. This is because most of the free spins deposit bonuses have higher wagering requirements.Deposit Bonus and Free SpinsIf a casino offers free spins, you’ll typically receive a set number of them; they may be credited to your account in batches over a number of days. Sometimes, free spins can only be used on one or a few slots. Sometimes, there are no restrictions as to what slots you can use free spins on.Casino Bonuses and Free SpinsWith free spins, there are usually some restrictions:The value of each spin is usually a fixed amount determined by the casino operator.There may also be a limit on how much real money you can win from using free spins.Then, of course, there are wagering requirements. More often than not, you’ll have to play through your winnings and/or deposit a set number of times before you can cash out.

Pai Gow Poker

A fusion of old I modern, Pai Gow Poker is a variation of poker a little twisted. We look for strategies to work with him, which have been designed to maximize every possible situation and to provide the knowledge required to know which hands to play and how to decide on the weight that each and every hand combination. Read this section carefully to emerge victorious in Pai Gow Poker.

Introduction

Asia Poker is a clever variation of pai gow poker and a Chinese game called '13 cards.' I've been getting requests for information about it for years. I think it started in Atlantic City, and moved its way west. When I finally saw it at Harrah's Rincon in California, and the Rio and Gold Coast in Las Vegas, I couldn't keep ignoring the game.

Rules

1. A 53-card deck is used, including one joker. The joker may be used to complete a straight, flush, straight flush, or royal flush, otherwise it is treated as an ace (the same way as in pai gow poker).
2. After making a wager, the player and dealer each get seven cards.
3. The player should arrange his cards into a one-card low hand, a two-card medium hand, and a four-card high hand.
4. The low hand may not be higher in poker value than the medium hand, and the medium hand may not be higher than the high hand. A violation of this rule will foul the hand, resulting in a loss.
5. There are just pairs and two singletons in the medium hand, no straights or flushes.
6. The poker rankings in the four-card hand are the same as in conventional poker, except there are no full houses. One reader has disputed this rule, so this needs to be verified.
7. The dealer shall set his hand according to the 'house way,' which is detailed below.
8. The player's three hands shall be compared to the corresponding dealer's three hands. In each comparison, the hand with the higher value shall win. Ties shall go to the dealer.
9. If the player wins at least two of the three hands, then he shall win even money on his wager. Otherwise he will lose. Note that no commission is charged on wins.
10. In addition, a Bonus Bet may be offered, based on the poker value of the player's seven-card hand. The pay tables for the Bonus Bet are explained below.

Strategy

Most hands will be obvious. If you aren't sure what to do, I would ask the dealer to set your hand by the 'house way.'

House Edge

The game owner tells me the house edge is 4.82%. Based on my own analysis, I think this figure is correct.

House Way

The following house way is from the Gold Coast in Las Vegas. I have an unconfirmed report that Harrah's (I'm not sure which one) uses a different house way.

For purposes of the house way, cards are defined into the following groupings:

• 2-6 = Low
• 7-10 = Medium
• J-A = High

Garbage

Play the 3rd highest card in the low hand, the 2nd and 4th highest cards in the medium hand, and the rest in the high hand.

One pair

With a high pair, and either no high singletons or one high singleton lower than the pair, split the pair between the medium and high hands.

Otherwise, play the 2nd highest singleton in the low hand, the 1st and 3rd highest singletons in the medium hand, and the rest in the high hand.

Two Pairs

Split the two pair between the high and medium hands.

Exception: If you have a pair of aces or kings and no high singletons, then then play the lower pair in the high hand and split the high pair between the medium and low hands.

Three Pairs

If one of the pairs is aces or kings, and the singleton is low or medium, then play a card from the high pair in the low, the other ace or king and the singleton in the medium hand, and the other two pair in the high hand.

Otherwise, if the singleton is low or medium, then play a card from the highest pair in the low hand, the medium pair in the medium hand, and rest in the high hand.

Otherwise (with no ace/king pair and a high singleton), play the singleton in the low hand, the highest pair in the medium hand, and the other two pair in the high hand.

Three of a Kind

With three 2-10: Play the 2nd highest singleton in the low hand, the 1st and 3rd highest singletons in the medium hand, and the rest in the high hand.

With three jacks and no high cards: Play the highest singleton in the low hand, a jack and 2nd highest singleton in the medium hand, and the rest in the high hand.

With three jacks and one high card: Play a jack in the low hand, the two highest singletons in the medium hand, and the rest in the high hand.

With three jacks and two high cards: Play the same way as three 2-10.

With QQQ-AAA and one or two high cards: Play a pair in the high hand, otherwise maximizing the low and medium hands.

Three of a Kind Twice

Split up the high three of a kind between the low and medium hands.

Straight, Flush, Straight Flush, Royal Flush

If you can play the four-card hand in the high hand, and a pair in the medium hand, then play that way, except if the pair is aces and the singleton is a not a king, then split the pair between the low and medium hands.

If the hand contains two pairs, three pairs, or a three of a kind, then break up the four-card hand, and follow the appropriate rule for two pair, three pair, or three of a kind.

If you can make both a straight or flush in the high hand, then play the way that results in the better medium hand.

If the medium hand is the same either way, then play the way that results in the best low hand.

If the four-card hand contains three or four high cards, and no additional high card, then play according to the 'garbage' rule. With an additional high card, play the four-card hand in the high hand.

If the hand contains a pair inside the four-card hand, and you have an ace, king, or queen and jack, then retain the four-card hand in the high hand. Otherwise, with a pair inside the four-card hand, play the pair in the high hand.

Full House

The 'usual way' to play a full house is to play the highest singleton in the low, the pair in the medium, and three of a kind and low singleton in the high hand.

With three queens or higher, and the singletons are both low or medium, split the three of a kind into the low and high hands, retaining the pair in the medium hand. With at least one high singleton, play the 'usual way.'

With a pair of aces of kings, and no high singletons, split the pair between the low and medium hands, and the three of a kind in the high hand. With at least one high singleton, play the 'usual way.'

With a three queens or higher, and a high pair, and no high singleton, split up the three of a kind between the low and high hands. Otherwise, with at least one high singleton, play the 'usual way.'

In all other situations, play the 'usual way.'

Three of a Kind and Two Pairs

Wizard Of Odds Ohio

With no high pairs, split the three of a kind between the low and medium hands, and play the two pair in the high hand.

Otherwise, play a card from the high pair in the low hand, the low pair in the medium hand, and the rest in the high hand.

Four of Kind

With a low four of a kind, and two high cards including an ace, play the four of a kind in the high hand.

With four aces or kings, and no high singletons, split the four of a kind into a pair in the high hand, and one card each in the low and medium hands.

Otherwise, split the four of a kind into a pair in the medium and high hands.

Four of a Kind and a Pair

With four aces or kings, play three of them in the high hand, and one in the low hand.

Otherwise, play the pair in the medium hand, and the four of a kind in the high hand.

Four of a King and a Three of a Kind

With four queens or higher, and a low or medium three of a kind, play the three of a kind in the high hand.

Otherwise, play the four of a kind in the high hand.

Five Aces

Play an ace in the low hand, two aces in the medium hand, and the rest in the high hand.
