Wagering game methods and apparatus for playing a Draw Poker type live casino and/or electronic game against a dealer and/or a pay table. Players place an ante wager to participate in the game. Each player and the dealer are dealt initial hands. Each player may discard any portion including all of his or her cards. The dealer discards according to predetermined criteria. Discarded cards are replaced by community draw cards in a specified order to complete final hands. Alternatively, each player and the dealer may be dealt their initial hands and replacement cards from their own associated decks. The ante wager is paid if the player's final hand outranks the dealer's final hand. An optional ante wager is paid according to a paytable if the player's final hand achieves at least a minimum bonus qualifying rank.
