ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a card game in which at least five cards are dealt to at least one player position in which the player may have made a wager. The player must make at least one wager corresponding to one or more of the player positions. To initiate a round of play, a number of cards are dealt face down to each of the player positions and one card is dealt to a dealer position. All the cards arc turned face up and each player position card is individually compared to the dealer's card. A winning status occurs for each wagered player position in which the player's upturned card has a higher ranking than the dealer's assigned card. The player is awarded a bonus payout according to a predetermined payout table if the player's cards form at least one of a plurality of predetermined combinations and the player has made a corresponding wager prior to any cards being dealt. In another embodiment, five additional cards are dealt to corresponding dealer positions for determining, as part of a bonus bet, if the player's five cards provide a higher-ranking poker hand than the five-card poker hand formed by the five additional cards dealt to the corresponding dealer positions.
