Abstract

A game is played on a generally semicircular top surface of a table that carries markings that define five wagering areas bounded by the markings and an arcuate edge of the surface. Each of the wagering areas carries three circular indicia therein. The game is started by a player placing checks representative of a High Card wager, a Black Jack wager and a Poker wager, respectively, upon the three indicia of a wagering area. The player and the dealer are each dealt a first card face up. The player wins the high card wager when the rank of the player's first card is higher than the rank of the dealer's first card. A second card is dealt face up to the player and face down to the dealer, whereby the dealer and the player each have two cards of a Modified Black Jack holding. The Black Jack wager is resolved in a manner similar to the way a Black Jack wager is resolved in the prior art with the exceptions that neither the dealer nor the player may receive more than five additional cards and the player may not go down for double. After the Black Jack wager is resolved, the player and the dealer receive additional cards until each holds seven cards. The player wins the poker wager when the player's holding includes a five card poker hand that is higher than any five card poker hand included in the dealer's holding.
