Abstract
A player places a base wager and an optional proposition wager in a card game or the game of Pai Gow tiles or in Three-Card Poker where all players compete against the dealer on the base wager. If the dealer receives one of predetermined hand combinations, a player making the optional proposition wager is paid odds on the proposition wager. Additionally, if the dealer receives one of the predetermined dealer hand combinations and the player also receives one of predetermined player hand combinations, players are paid higher odds. Additionally or alternatively, in lieu of just a proposition payoff, the player may be paid an enhanced winning base game award or be waived a commission when the dealer or the player himself has a predetermined qualifying hand combination.
