ABSTRACT:
A game uses a deck of cards having three sets of cards with designations 1 through 9, five cards with a Feng Shui designation, four cards with a Green Dragon designation, four cards with an East Wind designation, four cards with a South Wind designation, four cards with a West Wind designation and four cards with a North Wind designation. A player and a dealer hand, each with two cards, is generated and then it is determined whether either or both hands will receive one more card (the player hand can get hit if its cards have a ranking below a first number while the dealer hand can get hit if its cards have a ranking below a second, higher number) and then the hand with the highest ranking of cards is declared the winner. The rankings are based upon pairs of cards according to a preselected order. Players can be allowed to bet on the player's hand or the dealer's hand although a rake is taken from winnings bet on the dealer's hand and bonus bets can be paid when the winning hand is a certain ranking. The game can also be played in a blackjack fashion where multiple players can only bet against a house hand.
