Abstract

A deck of 54 cards is used comprising a standard deck of 52 playing cards plus two Jokers. Each Joker has a numerical value of 7 and has no suit value. The Face Cards and 10's count zero, the Aces count 1 and all other cards have their face value. A player and a dealer each receive a hand of five cards. The player may discard and draw up to two cards. The dealer must discard and draw based on preestablished criteria. Between the player and the dealer, whoever has a three card combination closest to the numerical value of 21 without going over wins the hand. If the player and the dealer each achieve the same numerical value other than 21, the hand is a push. If the player and the dealer each achieve 21, this tie may be broken based on the following hand ranking criterion: Rank #1. 6-7-8 of the same suit Rank #2. Flush 21 (three cards of the same suite totalling 21) Rank #3. Three 7's Rank #4. Pair 21 (three cards totalling 21: two 6's and a 9, two 8's and a 5 or two 9's and a 3) Rank #5. Other 21 combinations. If the tie is with the same Rank #, the hand is a push. If the player has Three 7's (Rank #3), and the dealer has a Rank #1 or Rank #2 hand, then the hand is a push.
