It is a split pot game, correct?

Not the version that I play. If there are other variations of the game that offer a split pot than I am not aware of them.

I was sitting with some poker friends a few weeks ago and we were talking about how it had been so long we couldn't remember the game. It is a split pot game, correct?


Pai gow is a casino table game that is really good for drinking. Low table minimums, a lot of hands result in pushes, and the house advantage is relatively low.

I looked it up online. Split pot really isn't the term I should have used. Playing in a house game we use to have a side pot with an extra ante for the two card hand. No pushes in our game. Winner of the big pot (the betting pot) takes that hand and the winner of the little pot (extra ante) takes that one. The other rules appeared to be played the same.
