A pai gow-type game in which a player wagers on one or more of a group of player hands, and where the chances of winning are not enhanced by the skills of the player and no discretion in the arrangement of hands is vested in either the player or dealer. A number of player hands and one or more banker hands are dealt on a playing surface and players wager as to which player hand or hands will beat the banker hand or hands. Each of the banker and player hands is arranged into a high hand and a low hand where the high hand has a higher rank than the low hand. A player hand is a winning hand if the player high hand has a higher rank than the banker high hand and the player low hand has a higher rank than the banker low hand. A player hand is a losing hand if the player high hand has a rank that is equal to or lower than the banker high hand and the player low hand has a rank that is equal to or lower than the banker low hand. Players that wagered on a winning player hand are paid based on the amount of the wager. Wagers are collected from those players that wagered on a losing player hand. If a player hand is neither a winning nor losing hand, no wagers are collected or winnings paid.
