ABSTRACT:
A method of playing a poker game using a single standard fifty-two card deck of playing cards, five cards are dealt as the dealer's hand with all face cards dealt face up. Three cards are dealt face up as the player's hand. Two cards are then dealt--one face up and one face down--to be used as cards that can be selected by the player for use in the player's hand. The player selects either the face up card or the face down card. The selected card is added to the player's hand and is displayed face up. The unselected card is then discarded and two more cards are dealt--one card face up and one card face down. The player again selects either the face up card or the face down card. Again the selected card is added to the player's hand and is displayed face up with the unselected card being discarded. This results in the player having a complete five card hand. If the player's hand is higher than the dealer's hand based on conventional poker hand rankings, the player wins. When played as an electronic video casino game, the amount won by the player is based on the number of coins, tokens or credits wagered by the player and the poker ranking of the player's hand. A payout schedule is provided with the highest hand being a Royal Flush.
