Pai Gow is an ancient and popular Chinese gambling game that continues to bring players from all corners of the world together. It is similar to the American version of the game, which is called Pai Gow Poker. Unlike many other forms of casino gambling, Pai Gow is usually played in two stages - first as a tabletop gaming experience and second as a competitive game. In its traditional form, the game is played on a four by eight foot table, with seating for up to four players. It is most popular in Macau, where it is now played on a large scale in several casinos, and has become extremely popular throughout the country.
