  • Patent number: 5918884
    Abstract: A card game that may be played at home or in a casino includes a game board having a plurality of card positions imprinted upon it. The actual card positions may vary, but in a preferred embodiment there are two positions representing Joker cards, thirteen positions representing cards of value Ace through King of any suit, four positions representing the four suites of cards of any value, one position representing a predefined "high" card of any suit, one position representing a predefined "low" card of any suit, and fifty two cards representing all of the cards of a deck of cards. The players cover as many positions as they wish with markers, and a card is selected at random from a shuffled deck of cards. All markers that cover positions that match the randomly selected card are winning markers, and all markers that do not are losing chips. The odds for the Joker position may differ from the odds for the Ace through King positions, and so on.
