ABSTRACT:
A method of playing a card game is disclosed. A low hand bet and a high hand bet, is received from a player. One card is dealt faced down to each player, which card can be viewed by only a respective player to which it is dealt. Four additional cards are dealt to each player face down and not to be looked at by the player. The low hand is played by permitting a player to play his first card on either the low hand or only on the high hand. The dealer needs to have an eight or less to qualify for playing the low hand. However, if a player plays a nine or higher on the low hand, the dealer does not need the qualifier. The low hand card of each player is then compared with the low hand card of the dealer. If a player's low hand card is lower than the dealer's low hand card, the player wins his low hand bet. The four additional cards are turned over and combined with the low hand card. The best possible poker hand combination of the player's cards are compared with the best possible poker hand combination of the dealer's cards to determine if the player or the dealer has a better poker hand.
