Abstract

A casino game method and system is set forth for house banked games such as Blackjack, Baccarat, Pai Gow and the like where each participating player makes a first wager to participate in the house banked game and a second wager to form a player competition pot. The first wagers are resolved according to the rules of the game. The second wagers are combined into a pot which is awarded to the player having the highest or lowest hand ranking. In the event of a tie the pot may be shared or carried over to subsequent hands until there is a single winner. The system provides for a host processor communicating with player terminals from which the players can control the game action. To provide a profit to the casino, at least a portion of the pot is awarded if the house hand has a certain holding.
