Disclosed is a card game wherein payouts are based on a maximum number of
matching suits in a player's hand. Players have the option to choose the
size of their hand at the outset of the game. In one live version, once
players select their hand size and place their wagers, dealers deal each
player two cards. Additional cards are dealt as common cards.
Alternatively, players may be dealt all cards directly. Players are paid
based on one of multiple pay tables depending on the maximum number of
cards which have identical suits in their hand. The greater the number of
identical suits in the hand, the greater the payout. Jackpots, including
progressive jackpots, based on poker rankings may also be implemented. In
a second live version, players may place six wagers on hands having from
two to five cards. In this version, players receive four cards which may
be used in combination with a single common card. Electronic gaming
devices may also facilitate video versions of the game.
