Table Pai Gow sits in our live casino lobby as a measured, strategy-forward game where you split seven cards into two separate hands and compete against the dealer. Available where local law permits, it gameplay careful hand-reading over pure chance — and your session controls are visible in your account dashboard before the first card is dealt.
Each round of Table Pai Gow begins with the dealer distributing seven cards — six to you, one face-down as the spare. You arrange your cards into a five-card back hand and a two-card front hand. Both hands must rank higher than the dealer's corresponding hands for a full win; one hand higher earns a push, and both lower means the round goes to the dealer. The betting structure is straightforward: one main wager covers both hands, with optional side bets shown on the felt layout.
You receive seven cards each round and arrange them into a five-card back hand and a two-card front hand. Your back hand must outrank your front hand — the table layout shows the valid ranking order so you can cross-check before confirming.
Winning both hands against the dealer pays even money minus a small commission deducted per the table rules shown on screen. Winning only one hand results in a push and your wager is returned. The dealer wins when both of their hands outrank yours.
Select tables carry a side bet that pays on the poker value of your seven-card starting hand — regardless of how the round resolves against the dealer. The side bet limit and payout table are displayed next to the main betting circle before you place your chips.
If you are unsure how to split, activate the House Way option and the system arranges your cards following the dealer's standard strategy. It is a useful reference point when you are learning how stronger splits are constructed from mixed hands.
Understanding the numbers behind Table Pai Gow helps you set a session budget that matches how the game actually moves. The game type and hand frequency are stable across rounds, and the information below reflects what the live table panel displays when you open a seat. RTP figures are shown only where the game provider exposes them in the table interface — we do not publish numbers that are not sourced directly from the provider feed.
Live dealer table game — card-based, player versus dealer format with a seven-card hand split each round.
Low to medium. Pushes are common, which keeps session variance lower than most card games. Full wins and losses both occur, but rarely in long consecutive streaks.
Accessible on Android and iOS mobile browsers as well as desktop. The table layout scales to the screen size detected at load time without requiring a separate download.
Available to accounts in eligible regions where local law permits. Your account dashboard shows whether Table Pai Gow is accessible from your current location at login.
Table Pai Gow on a phone works differently from most card games because the seven-card layout needs room. In portrait mode the cards fan across the lower half of the screen, with the split confirmation buttons positioned directly below your thumb line so you can tap each hand position without repositioning your grip. The dealer's hands sit at the top, clearly separated from yours.
If a round settles unexpectedly or your hand split does not register before the timer expires, the fastest path is the live chat icon in your account header — describe the table name, round time and the hand you were arranging. For account-level queries connected to a Table Pai Gow session — such as a round result showing in your transaction history differently from what you recall — the support team can pull the session log using your account ID.
Available from the account header icon. Provide the table name, the approximate round time and a description of the hand split issue. The agent can cross-reference the table session log against your account record while you are still in the chat window.

Table Pai Gow is one of the few live casino games where your decision — how you split the seven cards — directly influences whether the round ends in a win, a push or a loss. Most card games resolve on fixed rules, but here the split strategy is yours to manage each hand. That decision-making layer is what draws strategy-minded players toward this table over faster-paced options like Speed Sic Bo Live.
These are the terms that come up most often when you are learning Table Pai Gow for the first time or reviewing a round result in your session history.
House Way is the dealer's standard method for splitting seven cards into two hands. Activating it arranges your cards automatically using this fixed strategy, useful when you are uncertain how to construct the stronger of two possible splits.
A push happens when you win one hand and the dealer wins the other. Neither side wins the round outright — your original wager is returned to your account wallet without a commission deduction, and no result is recorded as a win or a loss.
Commission is a percentage fee deducted from your payout when you win a full round — both hands beat the dealer. The exact rate is shown on the table layout before you join. It is the standard mechanism by which the table maintains its edge over time.
The back hand is your five-card hand, ranked using standard poker hand values. It must always rank higher than your two-card front hand — placing a stronger combination in the front hand is a foul and the round is forfeited automatically.
The front hand is the two-card hand you set from your seven cards. It is ranked by pairs and high-card value only — no flushes or straights apply. It must rank lower than your five-card back hand to form a valid split.
A foul hand occurs when your front hand ranks higher than your back hand, which violates the game rule requiring the back hand to be stronger. The round is automatically forfeited and your wager is lost. The House Way option prevents this from happening.
These are the questions that come up most often from players exploring Table Pai Gow in our live casino section for the first time or returning after a break.
Open the live casino section from the main navigation after login. Table Pai Gow is listed under the table games filter. Select the table to preview the current commission rate and minimum wager before you join the seat. Availability depends on your account region and local law.
You can enter the table room at any time, but you can only place a wager at the start of a new betting window. If a round is already in progress when you arrive, the interface shows a waiting indicator and opens the bet controls as soon as the next round begins.
If the timer expires before you confirm your split, the table automatically applies the House Way arrangement to your seven cards. The round then resolves using that split. Your session history records the outcome with a note that the House Way was applied on that hand.
The amount won from a completed Table Pai Gow round — after commission is deducted — is added directly to your account wallet. You can see the updated balance in the wallet display at the top of the screen immediately after the round settles.
Your account wallet is funded through the payment rails shown in your account deposit section — GrabPay and InstaPay are among the verified options for eligible Philippines accounts. Once your wallet has a balance, you can use it across any available table game including Table Pai Gow.
Open Transaction History in your account dashboard and filter by the date of the session. Each round entry shows the wager, split result, dealer result and commission deducted. If the record does not match what you recall, raise a ticket through the help centre with your account ID and the round timestamp.
