Method of playing asian high-low card game

摘要

The method of playing a card game using a card deck of 360 cards which consists of 15 modified conventional decks. Each modified conventional deck has all seven, eight, nine, ten, jack, queen, and king cards removed therefrom. Thus, each modified conventional deck comprises only 24 cards. The card game is played according to either a high winning scheme wherein the best hand is a point total of twelve and the worst hand is a point total of two, or a low winning scheme wherein the best hand is a point total of two and the worst hand is a point total of twelve. The banker may arbitrarily choose either winning scheme, the chosen winning scheme being common to all the players and banker. After the winning scheme is determined, the first round of two cards is dealt face down to all players (betting players and banker). The players add the values of the cards in their hands. Eleven is subtracted whenever a hand total is greater than twelve. The players then determine whether an additional card is desired. This determination will likely be affected by whether the high winning scheme or the low winning scheme has been set. The hands of the various players are then compared with the hands of the banker, and winners are declared who have hands that are better than the banker's hand, according to the selected predetermined winning scheme.
