Abstract
A game of chance which can be played as a table game or as a computer video game where a player, after making a wager, is dealt a hand of seven cards, which he or she then arranged into a two-card 'Tiger' hand and a five-card 'Pay' hand. The dealer receives a three-card 'Dragon' hand, which remains face down until the player's cards are arranged such that the 'Pat' hand is of higher order that the 'Tiger' hand. To win the round, the player's 'Tiger' hand must have a higher ranking than the dealer's 'Dragon' hand. The priority of the winning hand is determined by conventional rules of poker. If the player's 'Tiger' hand beats the dealer's 'Dragon' hand, the player receives a jackpot which is determined according to the rank of the 'Pay' hand.
