ABSTRACT:
A low ball game and a method of dealing cards in the game. A standard deck of 52 playing cards plus one joker is used. Aces count as one. The players bet that the value of the highest card in their hand will not exceed a number from 1 through 9. However, a bet on a number must include all the higher numbers, and a minimum bet includes the numbers 5 through 9. The lower the number bet, the higher the pay-off if the player wins. A first embodiment uses actual physical cards that are dealt onto a table. Each player is given a square that is divided into nine smaller squares, numbered 1 through 9, with the single payout shown above the number and the cumulative payout shown below the number. A second embodiment for an electronic gaming machine displays similar rectangles and the cards on a video screen.
