ABSTRACT:
A method of playing a card game includes the steps of providing a playing board with at least one player card position and corresponding high/low betting area for each player and at least one dealer card position for the dealer, and providing a deck of cards including at least one wild card. The steps include placing at least one high/low wager in a high/low betting area by each player, dealing one card to each player card position having a high/low wager in its corresponding high/low betting area, dealing at least one card to the dealer card position, and comparing a card in each player card position with a card in a corresponding dealer card position. If a player card is ranked higher than the of a corresponding dealer card, the player wins according to first predetermined odds if the player wagered high and loses if the player wagered low. If a player card is ranked lower than the corresponding dealer card, the player wins according to the first predetermined odds if the player wagered low and loses if the player wagered high. If a player card is a wild card and a corresponding dealer card is a wild card, the player wins according to at least second predetermined odds higher than the first predetermined odds. If a player card is a wild card, and a corresponding dealer card is not, the player's wager is used in another level of comparison.
