Common Pai Gow Poker variants

  • Standard Pai Gow Poker

    Seven cards, single joker, 5% commission, dealer wins copies. The base game spread on most US tables.

  • EZ Pai Gow

    No 5% commission on winning hands; instead the dealer pushes on a queen-high pai gow. Lowers the edge slightly for high-volume players.

  • Commission-Free Pai Gow

    Drops the 5% rake entirely and offsets with a 'dealer wins on ace-high pai gow' or capped 1:1 payouts. Found at select Vegas locals casinos.

  • Face Up Pai Gow

    Dealer's cards are dealt face up so players know what they're trying to beat. Adds a tie-payout to the dealer for nearly equivalent house edge.

  • Pai Gow Poker Progressive

    Adds a $1 progressive side bet that pays for premium high hands (royal flush, straight flush, four of a kind). Variance is high; only meaningful when the jackpot meter is heavily seeded.
