  • Patent number: 5026072
    Abstract: A game is presented for play by a plurality of players in a range of two to eight persons. A predetermined number of cards is provided and upon determination of an initial dealer, the cards are dealt sequentially by each player counter-clockwise as the deal is turned over to an adjacent player to one's right of the current dealer. A predetermined number of such cycles are determined prior to commencement of play. The cards are shuffled and cards provided with a variety of differing symbols are passed to an adjacent player to the dealer's right. A preselected card or goal card is determined by the dealer and the adjacent player must then attempt to select that particular card. Scoring is awarded based on decreasing value dependent upon the number of attempts a player requires to select the goal card. Scoring and representative money is utilized throughout the game, and upon completion of the predetermined number or cycles, a winner is determined.
