    okay this is for you who know how to play PaiGow,
    but I was at Caesar's Palace this weekend and was playing some Pai Gow (regular not mini) and a thought occured to me, is there any hand that would be made into a 2 and 5 card hand that was a guaranteed win against the dealer... remember that identical hands are not push'es but considered dealer wins...
    also don't assume that any other players have any specific cards

    AA on top and AKQJT suited seems obvious, only way to tie is if the dealer makes the only other royal flush.

    yet but that's my point - it still would be only a push, since the dealer would be considered as winning the tied 5 card hand... (plus the dealer could actually also make the AA on top with the remaining ace and the wild card ace, and so actually you could even lose this hand)

    crap, I forgot about the Joker. I don't think what you are asking is possible because AA/AKQJT suited are the absolute nuts.
