Abstract: Disclosed is a method for playing a modified form of Blackjack ("Twenty-One") using one or more standard 52-card decks, and having rule variations to increase the excitement of the game while retaining the same "take" for the house within approximately 1%. By paying even-money on any blackjack (even on a "push"), rather than 1.5:1 if there is no push, shifts the take in favor of the house sufficiently to create several special rules greatly adding to the excitement of the game. Specifically, blackjack in a specified suit pays 2:1. Five or more cards totaling exactly 21 pays 2:1. Six-cards totaling 20 or less pays 1:1. No bonuses are paid on double-down hands. The player may split all equal-value cards three times, including Aces. The player may double-down on any number of cards, even after splitting and hitting, including Aces. The player may surrender one half her bet on any "unbusted" hand, even after hitting, doubling-down or splitting.

Abstract: Disclosed is a software implemented device and method for examining, verifying, correcting and approving electronically-recorded documents, prior to their final output, whether printing, transmission or recording. The disclosed device and method permits the user to assure that the diverse elements of the composite file, such as text, fonts, graphic formats, layout instructions and the like, which may exist in one or more electronic files, will be accessible by, and compatible with the output device. The present embodiment is able to assemble all elements of an electronic file, group of files or an electronic document into one location, whether physical or logical. The present embodiment also allows the above-described analysis on a multiplicity of file types, without need to use the specific file-creation applications used to create the files.
