Software (9)

Pai Gow Poker comes with all the safety and security one could ask for out of a game from Microgaming. Bets are easy to place, and everything is right there at your fingertips. Plus, there is "Expert Mode," which allows you to turn on AutoPlay, a feature that automates many of your play functions, including the time that elapses between deals. You can as fast as you want to, and that is one of the strengths you'll find.

Easy to Understand (7)

We don't know if we can say this game is simple to understand. In fact, if you are tackling it for the first time, it's going to be a little complicated. In fact, if you're a novice and have limited experience with poker, you might want to put your game on AutoPlay and let the software make decisions for you for a bit while you get a feel for the game. Ultimately, if you grasp the function of the Joker, the Bonus Bet payouts and the way the hands are separated, you will come to an understanding of how the game is conducted.

Graphics & Sounds (8)

The Microgaming software offers the sharpness of the graphics, particularly in the form of the cards coming out of the shoe. You can pull up the bonus payouts quickly and easily, with a mouse-graphic. And there are adjustments to the sounds. You can mix and match any of the game sounds, background sounds and win sounds, or eliminate them altogether.

Game Speed (9)

There are a couple of different ways you can work with the speed. First there is the basic speed control, which allows you to set the game at levels of Slow, Medium, Fast and Fastest. Then there is also a feature in AutoPlay that allows you to adjust the number of seconds between deals.

Game Features (9)

You can make "Bonus Bets" aside from your main bet, bringing back various payouts depending on how good your entire seven-card hand is. You also have the ability, through the "Statistics" function, to keep track of you highest hands, your second highest hands, and how well your Bonus Bets did. Of course, AutoPlay is a strong feature, because it allows you to play with minimal interaction with the software.
