Claim |
Having described the invention what I claim as new and wish to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A method of playing a card game comprising the steps of:
- a. the house determining a proper pay scale that is acceptable;
- b. providing a deck of 54 playing cards comprising a standard 52 card deck of playing cards including two Jokers;
- c. providing at least one ticket for each of the players, said ticket comprising any number of horizontal rows, with each horizontal row being one game;
- d. each of said players marking abbreviations on at least one ticket;
- e. each of said players placing their bet, with the minimum bet being determined by said house; said bet is in the form of either house chips having a dollar value, or money, said bet being determined by how many tickets the player is playing;
- f. the dealer shuffling said deck of 54 playing cards and positioning said cards on a table face-down one at a time into nine different stacks with each of said nine different stacks having six of said cards, thus all 54 of said cards are used for each game;
- g. said dealer asking one of said players if they wish to be the one to choose the stack, if they agree then they identify to said dealer which stack of said nine different stacks they wish to be the draw for said game;
- h. said dealer picking up said stack of said nine different stacks and placing each of said cards from said stack of said nine different stacks one at a time face up substantially side-by-side, until all said six of said cards of said stack of said nine different stacks are displayed face up, said six of said cards of said stack of said nine different stacks in combination are considered to be said draw for said game; and;
- i. said dealer determining if there is a winner, pays said winner accordingly and gathering the losers chips for either addition to a jackpot or for addition to house funds, if three or more of said cards from said draw match three or more of said abbreviations on at least one row of any said players said ticket, that player is a winner for said game.
