ABSTRACT:
A method of playing the card game of twenty-one or "Black JacK` involving a variation which allows a player to place a side wager in addition to the initial wager or ante, wherein the side wager allows the player to win at least a portion of a supplemental payout, which may be a predetermined amount or be derived from a progressively increasing wager pool, if one or more hands of the player have a final number count which ties the final number count of the dealer's hand. The player has the opportunity to concurrently play additional hands, each of which may also be eligible to participate in at least a portion of the supplemental payout if any one or all of the additional hands have a final number count equal to the final number count of the dealer hands. The player's additional hands are created by "splitting" initial and successive cards dealt the player if such cards are the same numerical count.
