  • Patent number: 6808174
    Abstract: A card game combining chance and skill. Cards having a rank of two through ten represent corresponding point values. Face cards each represent a point value of ten. Aces represent one and/or eleven at the player's choice. Players must commit wagers for a specific number of HIGH/LOW bets of equal value before the deal. Players are dealt a hand, face up, and the dealer is dealt a hand face down. The dealer turns his cards one at a time. Players must discard cards which match the rank of a cards turned over by the dealer. Using their committed wagers, players make a first HIGH, LOW or split bet after the deal and another bet after the turn of each dealer card. A separate payoff for each bet is determined based on whether the players final point sum was within the predetermined high or low range as predicted by the particular bet.

  • Patent number: 6796219
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for automatically basting a roasting item in an oven. A pump apparatus disposed outside of the oven provides pressure to a system of tubes which collect pan drippings and gravy (juices) from the bottom of a pan and dispense the drippings over a food item being roasted. A reservoir is provided in outside of the oven for addition of fluids to the roasting pan via the system of tubes. The reservoir is transparent for visually checking the fluid level without opening the oven. The pump apparatus is controllable manually or by an automatic timer for controlling the rate and timing of basting.
