ABSTRACT:
A deck of playing cards has imprinted thereon different symbols, such as 7's, Bars, Bells, Grapes, Oranges, Melons and Cherries, and optionally a Wild Joker symbol. Each player is playing against a pay table and not against the dealer. Each player makes a first wager and the dealer deals three cards to each player. If the player is dealt three matching symbols, or One or Two Cherries or a Wild symbol, the player achieves a winning combination and is eligible to receive a payout based on the amount of the player's wager. The player may collect his winning amount and end the hand or the player may decline the winning amount, surrender his wager, make a second wager and proceed to the draw step of the method of play. If the player is dealt any pair or three-of-a-kind symbols, the player has the option of proceeding to the draw step or simply standing with his initial first wager winner or loser that was dealt to him. If the player chooses to proceed to the draw step, the player surrenders his first wager and makes a second wager for the draw step. If the player proceeds to the draw step, the player is dealt a fourth card. The player does not have to discard at any time. A player then uses the best three or four cards after the draw step to make any possible winning combination. The amount won by the player is based on a pay table.
