ABSTRACT:
A card game provides for the simultaneous wagering on both occurrence of a numerically superior hand, as well as the occurrence of a flush or three of a kind 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 it 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. Wagers may be placed upon the occurrence of a two or three card flush, or three of a kind assuming a player(s) draw(s) a third card, in addition to wagering on the outcome of a numerically superior hand i.e., closest to nine. The occurrence of a flush or three of a kind in the dealer's hand effects the payoff of flush or three of a kind hands for the player(s), with the player(s) being required to have exactly nine points under such conditions.
