Abstract: There is disclosed a method of playing a numerical target card game. After bets are accepted from at least one player, one card may be dealt to the player and a banker. The player may elect to receive one or more hit cards. The banker may receive one or more hit cards according to predetermined rules. If the player receives a hand having a value greater than a numerical target, the player loses. If the value of the banker's hand exceeds the numerical target, every player receiving a hand with a value less than or equal to the numerical target wins. When the values of the banker's hand and the player's hand are both less than or equal to the numerical target, the hand with the highest value wins and the hand is a tie if the value of the banker's hand and a player's hand are equal.
