Abstract

The disclosed card game variant enables players to compete in the familiar format of a rummy-type game against other players in a live cardroom format. In a preferred seven-card embodiment, players initially ante, then receive two cards face down and one card face up from a non-playing dealer. Players electing to continue play after a forced bet or fold option each receive additional cards, one at a time with each card followed by a betting round, to complete a seven card hand consisting of three face down cards and four face up cards. The point count totals of the hands of each remaining player are then determined and compared, with each Ace counting 1, each deuce counting 2, etc., and with tens and face cards each counting 10. Each spread consisting of three or more suited cards in sequence or three or four of a kind counts zero (0). The object of the game is to have the lowest point count total, and the winning player(s) are awarded the accumulated wagers or pot.
