Abstract: A card game called "Newjack" is disclosed. Newjack is preferably played with between one to eight normal decks of playing cards, although a larger number of decks may be employed. Players play against each other rather than the house dealer. (Hence the game is not a banking game.) The players are trying to reach a card value total of between 22 and 30. Any player going over the card value total is given a second chance at winning and does not automatically lose. (Hence the game is not a busting game.) When the target value is 22, aces are always worth 1. Deuces are worth 2 or 12. Each numbered card is worth its face value and picture cards (King, Queen, Jack) are each worth 10. In Newjack, the player wagers against a designated player "Dealer". The designated Dealer is rotated throughout the game. The house collects a fixed amount from each player for each hand. Each player other than the Dealer is dealt two cards. The Dealer is dealt one card. The player's cards are dealt face down.

Pan 9 Gold is preferably played with between six and ten decks of cards with the sevens, eights, nines, and tens removed, although other numbers of decks and decks of different composition may be employed.

Hands with a value greater than nine have their value reduced by ten until the value falls between zero and nine. In Pan 9 Gold, the player wagers against a designated player "Dealer". The designated Dealer is rotated throughout the game. The casino or card room collects a fixed amount from each player for each hand. Each player is dealt three cards, all face down. Each player has the option to take one more card or stand.
