In a casino type of gaming establishment, all players compete against the house on the base wager; also the new game offers two unique optional side wagers. In a card room, the players compete against a banker. The main competition is between banker and players or house and players, depending on the setting of the game. All players bet simultaneously on one competition hand. Players may bet on one or all of the three flop cards. The new game is purely a game of chance, with no selection or arrangement of hands involved. It is strongly suggested that the present invention use an automatic shuffling machine in dealing cards for a faster game, fairness, and accuracy.
