Chinese poker is a card game built on standard poker hand rankings. It is meant to be beginner-friendly, since only a basic knowledge of poker hand rankings is needed to start playing. The format has a large element of luck, so frequent unexpected outcomes are common and a beginner has a good chance of winning in the short term even against experienced opponents. It is a different subject from Open-face Chinese poker, which this atlas lists as its own game.
