ABSTRACT:
The present invention includes a method for playing a game of solitaire as a wagering game. The method includes a step of a player paying a fee. Once the fee is paid, the player selects a shuffled deck of cards to play a first game of solitaire from one or more shuffled decks. Each of the shuffled decks is displayed with a predetermined number of upturned cards. The player plays the first game to either win or lose the game. If the player wins the first game, the player may pay a fee to play a second game of solitaire and is eligible to win a winner's bonus for winning the second game. The player selects a shuffled deck of cards to play the second game from one or more shuffled decks. Each of the shuffled decks is displayed with a predetermined number of upturned cards. The player plays the second game and either wins or loses the second game. The player collects the winner's bonus and is eligible to play a third game for a larger winner's bonus provided that the player wins the second game.
