Abstract

A method provides a bonus component to a table game involving one or more players. The method involves each player wishing to participate in bonus play first indicating participation in the table game, then wagering a game token on one or more of a number of predetermined card compositions. The game commences and each player is dealt a hand of game playing cards. If any players' hand of game playing cards includes a one of the number of predetermined card compositions, corresponding to a wagered bonus, the player making the wager wins the wager. A game table, having a dealer station and a number of player stations, is structured to provide acceptance of wagers. The game table includes, at each player station, apparatus forming a wager-receiving recess for accepting a wager--typically in the form of a token. A sliding cover is movable between a first position that exposes the recess, and a second position that inhibits further wagering by blocking the recess. The dealer station includes a control for causing movement of the sliding member between the first and second positions.
