  • Patent number: 6302398
    Abstract: A method of playing a card game and a deck of cards for playing the card game. The method includes dealing one face-up card to each player and one face-down card to the dealer from a deck of cards according to the invention. The object is to reach eleven, or as close thereto as possible without exceeding eleven. The deck of cards includes at least six cards of each value from one to eight and at least one wild card, and more preferably, at least four wild cards. Wild cards have any desired value from one to eleven. A player wins immediately if he initially receives a wild card, unless the dealer also initially receives a wild card, and vice-a-versa. Provided the dealer and at least one player do not receive a wild card, play continues, with each player having the choice of resting or requesting additional cards, one at a time. A player loses if the total value of the cards received by the player exceeds eleven. After all players have rested, the dealer continues.
