Abstract
A method of playing a banking wagering game such as black jack includes the initial step of wagering a plurality of equal value first bets by each player against a banker/dealer. The number of first bets corresponds to a predetermined number of rounds of the wagering game constituting a set, such as three. Each respective first bet is a wager that the player will have a hand during the respective round which will win over a hand of the banker/dealer. As the first bets are made, each player also wagers a second bet of the same value as the first bets that each one of the first bets of the respective player during the set will be winning wagers. The predetermined number of rounds are then played to complete the set and determine the outcome of all bets. This playing step includes, after each round, the step of determining whether the respective first bet of each respective player is a winning or losing wager and the paying off or collecting of the first bet by the banker/dealer. In addition, the second bet of a respective player is collected after an initial collecting step of a losing first bet, or the second bet is paid off by the banker/dealer to a respective player after paying off of a winning first bet after a last round of the set where each first bet of each of the rounds of the set by the respective player has been a winning wager.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
