AUXILIARY POT SHOT POKER VIDEO POKER GAME AND POKER TABLE SURFACE

摘要

An auxiliary pot shot video poker game and a poker table surface comprise a variety of unique and independent betting positions such as No Pair. A player betting on No Pair may place their bet or wager that the end outcome of poker game play will be that their hand will represent no pair, a poor outcome. Other positions of the auxiliary game may comprise one pair of 2's through 10's, one pair of Jack's through Aces, two pair, three of a kind, a straight, a full house and so on with generally increasing pay-offs as the likelihood of receiving the predicted outcome poker hand decreases. However, because these bets are independent the payoffs may be much larger than a pay-off for a standard video poker or poker table game. As a poker game continues and cards are dealt, a player of the auxiliary game may receive compensation for bets on predicted outcomes with automatically calculated pay-offs depending on the wagers places. In a five card draw game, the cards the player receives after selecting cards to be held determines the outcome of the hand and the associated pay off. The auxiliary game may be adapted for play with many types of poker games including but not limited to five card, six card and seven card stud, five card draw and wild card play.
