Shok and RRRed got hooked on Pai Gow 3 or so years ago in Vegas. I want to try it, but it seems to take a lot of time. Sometimes I just want to get in, lose all my money and get on to other things.

If I'm playing by myself, I tend to do the same thing...and that's more likely to be at Blackjack. Leave as soon as I get up or down a certain amount.
If I'm being sociable and wanna sit down, kick back, drink and gamble a bit, Pai Gow Poker is the perfect game for it if you dont wanna spend a lot of money. And the pace is slow enough that you can have some conversation.
Now I'm talking Pai Gow POKER, not regular Pai Gow. Regular Pai Gow is played with big dominos. I dont know that game and am not asian enough to play it. Pai Gow Poker is played with a single deck of cards and is quite easy to pick up if you understand basic poker rules well enough to know how the hands rank.
