A novel game and board or surface is played in combination by at least two players, one being a player and bettor and the other being a dealer or croupier using at least one standard deck of 52 cards. Also used by the croupier are a shuffling machine for cards, a dealing machine for cards and a catch bin for discarded or played cards. The order of play and payoffs for each bet are set by the house or the croupier. The novel game is played by a player first placing a bet in a betting spot using chips, for example. Next, the dealer deals six cards to each player face down onto an area on the table called a pot and designated for that player and afterwards deals six cards to another area on the table called a dealer's pot in a location on the table designated for the dealer's pot. One play in a series of six comprises the dealer turning up a player's top card and turning up the dealer's top card: High wins at even odds of 1 to 1; equal cards are a draw or push and neither wins except if a player has a deuce, the player's deuce is an automatic loss, the player loses; a player's ace wins at odds of 3 to 2. After one play, a player may place a new bet before cards are next turned over. Overturned cards are discarded into a catcher or bin located on the table for discarded or played cards. More than one deck can be used and multiple players can play the game.
