ABSTRACT:
A board game in which players acquire, then sell, sports cards. Each player is represented by a piece which traverses, in rotating turns, a common path along the board. Progress along the path is determined by a throw of a die. Upon his or her piece landing on a given square, a player makes a purchasing decision relating to a sports card represented by the square. Certain squares along the path are associated with instructions affecting a player's amassed wealth. After traversing the board, a second game phase begins in which acquired sports cards are surrendered for symbolic value, the disposal value being determined by further die throws. In this second phase, the color of a die face rather than the die numerical indicia determines disposal value. The player amassing the greatest symbolic value wins.
