ABSTRACT:
A method of playing a wagering game where players successively become the "player-bank," i.e., wager against each of the other game players, is disclosed. The method offers the player-bank a plurality of wagering options to enhance player interest and involvement. A first option concerns a first process which involves the player-bank with only those successive players whose combined wagers are less than or equal to the player-bank's wager, while a second option concerns a second process which continues to involve the player-bank with successive players as long as his wager plus his winnings is not exceeded by his losses. In determining winners, players add the numerical value of cards dealt to them to find the least significant digit of the sum. The player having a least significant digit closest to a predetermined numerical goal without exceeding it is deemed the winner. In one preferred embodiment, the second process is canceled and replaced by the first process if the player-bank's least significant digit in an initiated second process equals the numerical goal.
