ABSTRACT:
A card game provides for wagering on the occurrence of a numerically superior hand, and further provides for automatic payouts for the occurrence of three of a kind in a player hand during the play of the hand. At least one standard deck of cards is used, with the ace through nine of each suit respectively being valued at one through nine points, and the ten through king of each suit having no value. The object of the game is to arrive at a total point count of nine in the hand of two or three cards, with the player (or dealer) coming closest to nine, winning the hand; the tens digit is dropped if the card values exceed ten. Two cards are initially dealt to the players and dealer, with the dealer's first card being dealt face up. The dealer is limited to inflexible rules governing the drawing of a third card, but the players may draw a third card freely as desired. The occurrence of three of a kind in the dealer's hand effects the payoff of three of a kind hands for the player(s), with the player(s) being required to have exactly nine points under such conditions.
