ABSTRACT:
A multiple hand variation of the card game Twenty-One involving individual players being dealt five cards, the five cards being divided into a two-card hand and a three-card back hand is disclosed. In a first embodiment of the invention, the cards are arranged into a two-card hand that comes as close to twenty-two points as possible, and into a three-card hand made up of the remaining cards. The two-card hand, which is the better of the two hands, is designated as the "front" hand and is positioned in front of the other hand, which is designated the "back" hand. In the event that the back hand exceeds twenty-two points, ten points are automatically subtracted from the back hand to prevent a "bust" from occurring with regard to that hand. In a second embodiment of the invention, the player has the option of maximizing either the two-card hand or the three-card hand to a predetermined point level. The better of the two hands is then designated as the "front" hand and is positioned in front of the other hand, which is designated the "back" hand. In both embodiments, the players competitively wager their front and back hands against the front and back hands of the bank.
