ABSTRACT:
A method of playing a wagering game based broadly on the "war" game is played where an ante bet is first made by each player and a card is then dealt to each player and to the dealer. It is then determined whether the card of the dealer has a greater value, a lesser value or an equal value to that of each player. The ante bet is then immediately paid off to each player with a higher value card than the dealer and to the dealer for each player with a value less than or equal to the dealer. Additionally, if the dealer ties a player, each tied player then (optionally) wagers a further bet (whose payoff odds are in favor of the player) which is followed by the dealing of at least one further card to each tied player and to the dealer to see who wins the further bet(s). The paying off of the further bet also preferably includes in the event of a further tie either a win to the dealer, a win to the player, or a further deal to the player and dealer. A tie bet that the player and dealer will tie can also be made by any player at the same time that the ante bet is wagered.
