ABSTRACT:
A method for playing a board game is provided using one standard deck of playing cards ranked in order Ace, King, Queen, Jack, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2; or a pocket billiard table with pool balls ranked in order, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15. The game board playing surface comprises the steps for two to ten players taking turns throwing two dice, moving a moving piece the correct number of spaces along the playing path. Depending on the space landed on the player either acts on that space, or draws one of the three draw cards: game, pay or collect. If the player lands on a pay space he must pay the penalty listed. If the player lands on a collect space he must collect the bonus listed. If the player lands on a game space he must play the game listed. He must also follow the correct limits to play for as listed on the game card. When the game card is drawn that player shuffles and deals the cards to all players, or racks the pool balls and breaks to begin the game. The player who obtains the highest ranking card hand wins the money in the pot, or the player that shoots in the winning pool ball wins the money in that game. Once a winner for that game played is determined the dice are passed to the next player to continue playing.
