Simple questions.. both are about when the dealer has A-high pai pow
If I have king high pai gow in this situation, do I push or lose?
Do they resolve the fortune bonus bet in this situation or does it just push?

Yeah, there are times when you will have a hand that will normally have lost to the dealer's Ace-high that you get to push in Face Up PGP.
I've played this pretty much exclusively since it has made its way to the strip, and I love it. The only time it's no fun is when the dealer is getting more Ace highs than normal.

What are the mins for the game like on the Strip? Looking to play in Oct.
I got a plan, we take all your picks we reverse them like one of those twilight zone episodes where everything is the opposite. You say "black" we go white.

We usually had little problem finding a spot at NYNY. People flit around tables there when they run into bad luck.
To be truthful it gets a bit boring because you lose the fun of setting your hands stupidly after awhile. I mean it's fun to put out the two lowest cards to beat the dealers two card hands and overkill the top hand.
I think my favourite non-commission version is EZ.

Of course it gets boring! There is changeable NO DECISION POINT! There is one correct way to set your hand and after you see the house's hand; it is self evident. It has all the strategy of...... NO STRATEGY!

And you’d be surprised how many people STILL manage to play their hands wrong.
Or maybe you wouldn’t be surprised.
It’s crazy.
