Abstract: This embodiment of our Modified Blackjack Game Method provides predetermined rules that allow a player to compete against other players on a table, and against the “house” on an electronic video gaming device, in much the same way as the traditional game of blackjack has always been played throughout history, except that it also provides predetermined rules that cause one suit to subtract from player totals instead of adding to them. It also provides predetermined rules that describe winning hands that are not used in other forms of blackjack, as well as providing predetermined rules for comparing negative value hands with positive values hands. These predetermined rules present unexpected challenges to, and require new winning strategies from, even the most experienced player. Further features will be described and become apparent in the detailed description in the specification.
