Abstract
A house-banked casino card game includes a dealer having a dealer hand and at least one player having a player hand. The dealer exposes a first community hand and a second community hand, and the player selects one of the first and second community hands as part of the player hand prior to additional cards being exposed. After exposing the additional cards, the dealer selects one of the first and second community hands as part of the dealer hand. The game is resolved based on a comparison of the player hand and the dealer hand. In the casino environment, the game may include an initial wager for the player to participate in the game, and a pick wager after the first and second community hands are exposed, which pick wager serves to select the first or second community hand. At least one bonus wager may also be included and is resolved according to a predetermined payout scale based on at least one of the dealer hand and the player hand or other card combinations.
