ABSTRACT:
A card game with a Dealer and at least one player, the game using at least one deck of standard playing cards, including dealing a hand of a first face-up card to each player and a face-down card to the Dealer, and dealing at least one additional card to each hand unless the corresponding hand has a value of a target number achievable by one card, the objective of the card game being to achieve a hand with a value of the target number, allowing one discard, where face cards and aces each have a value of one, and where a post-discard hand value greater than the target number is a Bust. When a player's hand is a Bust, that player may be given the option to wager an additional amount, where a subsequent Dealer Bust hand results in that player winning her original wager plus the additional amount.
