Abstract: A card game where cards are arranged in columns, rows or circles that move in random or pseudo-random fashion. The player uses a point device to cause a line to intersect the cards. The cards that are intersected form the player's hand. The game can be played with split representation cards that are designed so that when the card is first displayed, either the suit or the rank is displayed, but both the suit and the rank are not displayed together. When the player selects the card, both the suit and the rank are displayed together as in a conventional card.

Abstract: This invention is for an innovative multi-handed poker game where cards are arranged as a polygon, where each side has the same number of cards and each side has corner cards that are shared with adjacent hands. The player can exchange cards from one hand with cards in another hand to improve his odds of winning.

Abstract: This patent relates to novel playing cards and games that can be played with those cards. The novel cards have the suit on one side and the card's value on the other. Thus, when they are dealt, the player will know the suit of some or all cards in his hand, but will not know the value.

Abstract: This invention is a multi-handed poker game where the cards are dealt in one or more diamond patterns. In one embodiment, each side of the diamond is a separate hand. In some embodiments, the cards can be exchanged from one hand to another. In another embodiment, there is no card exchange; the cards are dealt, the player decides which cards to hold and the non-held cards are replaced. In another embodiment, the diamond or diamonds (in multiple hands) have one card in each corner and the fifth card in the center of the diamond. In this version of the game, the diamonds can be linked and so that the corner cards are common to one or more adjacent hands.
