The five-card hand (called 'rear hand') must be the highest of the two. The hand of two cards (called 'front hand') must be lower than the one with five. Players are dealt a total of seven cards, with which they form two hands: one of five cards and one of two. The table usually takes place for six players (in the online version it is usually a single player-dealer duel). Pai Gow Poker is played using a 52-card deck and a joker card.
