Abstract

See full text

A modern version of an old gambling game enables players to wager on a particular card or hand being dealt into a first position or a second position. Wagers matching the first card or hand in the first position and wagers matching the second card or hand in the second position are paid. Wagers for matching ranks in the incorrect position are taken. If that particular card or hand does not appear, the wager stays in play for a next round. When the first card or hand is equivalent to the second card or hand, matching wagers win, and unmatching wagers are resolved according to characteristics of the first card or hand and the second card or hand, such as card suit, card color, whether the cards are odd or even or high or low, using a hand rank such as according to poker combinations, by a numerical computation of the hand with reference to prescribed rankings of high/low or odd/even or the like. The game incorporates a reasonable and consistent house advantage and a smooth method of operation, while being easy to understand and fun to play.
