Abstract

The method of playing a card game using a card deck of 360 cards which consists of 10 modified conventional decks. Each modified conventional deck has all seven, eight, nine, and ten cards removed therefrom. Thus, each modified conventional deck comprises only 36 cards. The card game is played according to either a red winning scheme wherein only the cards in the red suit are counted and totalled or a black winning scheme wherein only the cards in the black suit are counted and totalled. The banker may arbitrarily choose either winning scheme, the chosen winning scheme being, commom to all the players and banker After the winning scheme is determined, the first round of three cards is dealt face down to all players (betting players and banker). After all players have received their three cards, the players total the value of the cards in their hands that only belong to the chosen suit winning scheme. The cards belonging to the suit not chosen are not counted and are not totalled. The players then determine whether an additional card is desired. This determination will likely be affected by whether the red winning scheme or the black winning scheme has been set. The hands of the various players are then compared with the hands of the banker, and winners are declared who have hands that are better than the banker's hand, according to the selected predetermined winning scheme. Any hand between the players and the banker are push hands that are considered to be tie.
