Perfect Pai Gow™ Enhanced House Strategy
The Perfect Pai Gow™ strategy can increase your profits from Pai Gow Tiles up to 250%.
Overview
The Perfect Pai Gow™ optimal house strategy was calculated using computer software specially designed to determine the strategy that yields the greatest house advantage under several circumstances.
It features something that no other house strategy offers: a house advantage when a player is banking, even if the player uses a perfect strategy. Typical house strategies relinquish the advantage to the player when they are banking, but this is not the case with the Perfect Pai Gow™ strategy.
Is It Optimal?
There are three important things to know about optimal house strategies:
There are multiple house strategies that are considered optimal
Optimal house strategies are extremely complicated
- Optimal house strategies are nearly optimal against themselves
It sounds paradoxical, but it is likely that the house win would decrease when using an optimal house strategy. This is because players can achieve near-perfect play by simply asking the dealer to set their tiles the house way each hand, since the optimal house stratey is almost identical to the optimal player strategy against it.
The Perfect Pai Gow™ strategy was carefully designed with this knowledge taken into consideration, by striking the perfect balance between simplicity, players who use the house strategy, and players who use a perfect strategy.
Is It Complicated?
The Perfect Pai Gow™ strategy is no more complicated than a typical house strategy. The rules are both easy to understand and easy to remember.
The entire strategy has approximately the same number of rules as a typical house strategy, and fits on a single page. It is the culmination of several months of studying the strategy data, and deriving simple rules that accurately describe it.
