Abstract
A method and apparatus for playing a casino card game is disclosed that utilizes a single, 41-card deck of playing cards consisting of a standard, 4-suit playing card deck from which all 'face' cards have been removed and a single 'joker' card has been added. Play of the game starts with a first player selecting a card value, termed the 'dealer number'. No bets can be placed on the dealer number. Players may then place their wagers(s) on any of the remaining 'live' numbers, and the dealer deals a first playing card, face up. If the identified 'dealer number' card value is turned over, all players having placed a bet on any of the 'live' numbers win, and are paid off even money. If the card has a value other than the 'dealer number', the house wins all bets placed on the 'value' number of the card that was turned over, and that value number is thereafter considered 'dead'. Play continues, with the players given an opportunity to place additional bets on the remaining, 'live' card values prior to turning over the next card. If the 'joker' card is dealt by the dealer at any time before the 'dealer number' has been dealt, the house wins all remaining bets, and the game is over. The present invention also contemplates the placement of proposition bets.
