ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus for allowing gamblers playing either live casino table game or electronic video device versions of card games allow the players the options of (1) making wagers in both the underlying card game and a progressive jackpot component, (2) making wagers only in the underlying card game, and (3) making a wager only in the progressive jackpot component. In the live table version, a player may activate an indicator light or place a special token in the bet box for the underlying game to signal that the player opts to participate only in the progressive jackpot component. In the electronic video device version, a player activates one or more push buttons to select one of the three operational modes. The underlying card game preferably comprises Twenty-One or a five-card stud poker variant known as Caribbean Stud.TM. poker, but may also comprise other card games such as five card stud, seven card stud, Jacks or better, etc.
