Abstract

A method and device for conducting blackjack-type games includes receiving a base wager and dealing at least one initial player hand and an initial dealer hand. A final player hand is formed from each initial player hand. Optionally, if the initial player hand matches a discard criterion, a designated card may be burned from the initial player hand and replaced with a newly dealt card. If a final player hand matches a predefined modified player winning hand, the base wager is rewarded using a predefined pay table either with or without first comparing the final player hand to a final dealer hand. A final dealer hand is formed. If the final dealer hand is a predefined modified dealer bust hand, the base wager is paid less than even money, which may include simply returning the wager. The base wager may otherwise be resolved in a manner consistent with conventional blackjack.
