Method, apparatus, and computer-readable medium for executing a multi-player card game on a single display

A method executed by one or more computing devices for executing a multi-player card game on a single display, the method comprising:

• generating, at least one of the one or more computing devices, one or more playing cards corresponding to each player in a plurality of players, wherein the one or more playing cards are generated based at least in part on a random function, a set of playing cards remaining in a virtual deck of playing cards, and a set of rules corresponding to a card game;
• transmitting, by at least one of the one or more computing devices, a plurality of images to a plurality of regions of a single display, wherein each region in the plurality of regions corresponds to a player in the plurality of players, wherein each region in the plurality of regions is located at a position on the single display which is closer to a physical location reserved for the corresponding player than to any other physical location reserved for any other player, and wherein the plurality of images comprise a representation of the one or more playing cards corresponding to each player;
• receiving, by at least one of the one or more computing devices, one or more inputs from one or more players in the plurality of players;
• transmitting, by at least one of the one or more computing devices, one or more new images to the single display in response to the one or more inputs;
• wherein the representation of the one or more playing cards corresponding to each player comprises one or more face-down playing cards corresponding to each player, wherein an input in the one or more inputs comprises a request to view the one or more face-down playing cards corresponding to an input-providing player in the one or more players, and wherein transmitting one or more new images in the single display in response to the one or more inputs comprises:
• transmitting one or more face-up playing cards corresponding to the one or more face-down playing cards to a sub-region of a region corresponding to the input-providing player;
• and
• transmitting one or more colored bars in the sub-region, the one or more colored bars bordering the one or more face-up cards.

At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-readable instructions that, when executed by one or more computing devices, cause at least one of the one or more computing devices to:

• generate one or more playing cards corresponding to each player in a plurality of players, wherein the one or more playing cards are generated based at least in part on a random function, a set of playing cards remaining in a virtual deck of playing cards, and a set of rules corresponding to a card game;
• transmit a plurality of images to a plurality of regions of a single display, wherein each region in the plurality of regions corresponds to a player in the plurality of players, wherein each region in the plurality of regions is located at a position on the single display which is closer to a physical location reserved for the corresponding player than to any other physical location reserved for any other player, and wherein the plurality of images comprise a representation of the one or more playing cards corresponding to each player;
• receive one or more inputs from one or more players in the plurality of players;
• and
• transmit one or more new images to the single display in response to the one or more inputs;
• wherein the representation of the one or more playing cards corresponding to each player comprises one or more face-down playing cards corresponding to each player, wherein an input in the one or more inputs comprises a request to view the one or more face-down playing cards corresponding to an input-providing player in the one or more players, and wherein the instructions that, when executed by at least one of the one or more computing devices, cause at least one of the one or more computing devices to transmit one or more new images in the single display in response to the one or more inputs further cause at least one of the one or more computing devices to:
• transmit one or more face-up playing cards corresponding to the one or more face-down playing cards to a sub-region of a region corresponding to the input-providing player;
• and
• transmit one or more colored bars in the sub-region, the one or more colored bars bordering the one or more face-up cards.
