Abstract: A method of playing a pai gow poker game in which, in addition to the usual seven cards dealt to each player and the dealer, a single player tiebreaker card is dealt for all players and a single dealer tiebreaker card is dealt to the dealer. The ante bet of each player is then paid off for winning and losing hands in the usual manner of a pai gow game. However, with push hands (where only one of the two-card hand and five-card hand of the player has a higher poker rank than the respective two-card hand and five-card hand of the dealer), the winner is determined by the higher value of the player and dealer tiebreaker cards so that no push bets occur.

Abstract: A method of playing a blackjack-type wagering game where the playing cards have ranks and suits. Initially, the dealer deals a hand to each player making an ante bet and the banker. This dealing step includes the step of hitting each player and the banker as desired thereby. Next, it is determined whether each player has a winning hand, a losing hand or a push hand. For each push hand, it is then determined whether a poker value of that push hand is greater than or less that of the banker's. Finally, the ante bet of each respective player is paid to (a) each respective player if each respective player has a total hand value considered a winner over a total hand value of the banker or for a push hand if the poker value is greater than the banker's, or (b) the banker if each respective player has a total hand value considered a loser over a total hand value of the banker or for a push hand if the banker's poker value is greater than the player's.
