Abstract

Aspects of the present inventions concerns methods and devices for playing a game with predetermined rules using at least one standard deck of 52 actual or virtual playing cards, wherein at least two but no more than three cards are dealt to a first hand, at least two but no more than three cards are dealt to a second hand, and a player wagers on either (i) the first hand having a score closer or equal to a predetermined high value than the second hand, (ii) the second hand having a score closer or equal to the predetermined high value than the first hand, or (iii) the first and second hands having the same score, wherein the predetermined rules make the odds of the first hand having a score closer or equal to the predetermined high value more likely than the second hand having a score closer or equal to the predetermined high value. Such aspects include permitting a player to place an ante bet with a wager on the first hand having a score closer or equal to the predetermined high value than the second hand, collecting the ante bet from the player if the score of the first hand does not equal the score of the second hand, and paying the player an ante bet payoff if the score of the first hand equals the score of the second hand.
