Book cover and reviewer wrong July 13, 2005

Sorry, didn't read the book -- my comment is on previous poster but I agree that any pai gow book that gets the cover hand wrong...okay, I am judging a book by its cover.
True, the book cover's method is completely wrong. But splitting the aces as suggested by the previous reviewer is wrong as well. You may never lose but will always push if dealer has three of a kind or better playing the reviewer's way.
You should keep the four aces together and put the pair of queens on top. The only hand that you would lose to is a straight flush with a pair of kings or queens. Dealer's top hand cannot have a pair of aces, even with a joker, since you have four. Also, since you have one of the four kings, he has to have two of the remaining three or if queens, he needs two of the remaining two. Even if dealer has a pair of kings or queens, he cannot put them on top unless he also has three of a kind (unless he has exactly a pair of kings and a pair of queens) or better for his bottom hand. But if Dealer has three of a kind then he would already win the bottom hand if played as written by the previous poster and you would push.
If this seems odd, consider if you had four aces and three kings. The correct way is to put four aces on the bottom and two kings on top (not put two aces on top and keep a pair of aces and a pair of kings on bottom). You could never lose because dealer cannot have a pair of aces or a pair of kings, which means you would always win the top hand. You would lose the bottom hand only if Dealer had a straight flush.

The hand is improperly set in the picture on the cover.Should be a pair of aces up front, with 2 pair back (queens and aces). The hand set in that manner is unbeatable, but not guaranteed a winner.
