Fortune Pai Gow is a blend of the traditional Chinese card game and American poker. Players must arrange their cards into two hands—five cards for one hand and two for the other. If the player's hands rank higher than the dealer's, they win. Additionally, Fortune Pai Gow offers a bonus bet: an extra $5 gives players a chance to win the Envy Bonus, as per the regulations set by the California Bureau of Gambling Control.
