Abstract

See full text

A playing card, wagering game method where each player antes one unit. The dealer will deal four cards down to each player and four cards down to himself. Each player evaluates their hand and elects to either fold or challenge the remaining players and dealer. Any player who folds, surrenders his ante to the house. The total amount of antes remaining after each player evaluates his hand will be referred to as the 'ante pot'. All players electing to remain, or challenge, (including the dealer), must wager an amount equal to the ante pot. The dealer always challenges the pot. After each player has elected to either fold or challenge, the dealer, after 'burning' a card, will deal or 'flop' another three community cards to be used by all challenging participants. The highest poker hand of each participant using their initial four cards plus the three community cards wins the pot. The first player to act is determined on a rotating basis to eliminate position advantage. Single player versus the dealer has the option to double the 'ante pot,' resulting in the dealer likewise adding to the ante pot.
