Abstract

A method of playing a game of chance by selecting symbols, such as cards, for display on a pyramidal or a progressively narrowing geometric game board and arranging said selected card symbols in an array of at least three groups. The cards are selected so the statistical odds of a match in a first group of card symbols are of a highest amount and a match in a third group of card symbols are of a lowest amount. Cards are selected to determine in a corresponding sequence a match with card symbols. Only those individuals playing the game who have successfully matched the card symbols in the first group may play in the second group and only those individuals playing the game who have successfully matched the card symbols in the second group may play in the third group. A wager is placed for a round of match play and each subsequent round of wagering depends on prevailing in the previous round. Also provided is a bye option, which allows the player to advance from the initial round to subsequent rounds of play by matching the dealer's card. A means for increasing the payout in subsequent rounds is based on the matching of the same card symbols in several rounds.
