ABSTRACT:
A board game apparatus is disclosed having a board with marked spaces or areas constituting a path of progression around the board. The apparatus includes token money as a medium or indicia of payment. Movement of playing pieces is by chance. Spaces or areas on the board provide instructions for further movement or the mode of exchange of tokens between or among the players. Cards are provided having selected values and are used by the players to challenge and to play competitively with each other. Strategy of play depends upon position on the board and the cards available to the players. Payments from one player to another may result from winning or losing a challenge situation or by chance as dictated by the indicia on a player's position on the board. The game involves a combination of chance or luck and skill in managing the cards drawn.
