Abstract: A card game and method of playing the same played with a standard 52 card deck is disclosed, wherein each of several players is dealt three cards and is given the opportunity to stand pat or to exchange one card for another dealt by a non-player dealer with the object of achieving a hand having a high score based on a numerical point scoring system in which the lowest hand score is zero and the highest is ten. Each such score is then compared with that of a predesignated reference player or "banker" to distinguish winning hands from losing hands. In those jurisdictions in which it would be legal, the game may also include wagering by the players according to specific payout rules.
