    Abstract: A card game combines the action of blackjack with the action of five-card stud. The participating players place a first wager and a second wager and an optional bonus wager. The participating players and the dealer are each dealt five cards. The players and dealer make a blackjack hand from their respective five cards. In order to win the first wager, the player's blackjack hand must beat the dealer's blackjack hand. The players and dealer then make a five-card stud hand from their respective five cards. In order to win the second wager, the player's five-card stud hand must beat the dealer's corresponding five-card stud hand. Additionally, players may place an optional bonus wager that is related to the poker ranking of the five cards received by the player. A pre-established pay table defines the bonus wager winning combinations and corresponding payouts.
