Abstract

A system and method for conducting a casino game based on a number of same-suited cards. Players place a mandatory 9-card wager on red or black synonymous with Diamonds/Hearts and Spades/Clubs, respectively. Optional 3-card wagers (community cards), 6-card wagers (player cards) and 9-card bonus wagers (community cards+player cards) are available. After the placement of the mandatory 9-card wager and optional wagers, three community cards are dealt or displayed and then players have option to fold or place a play wager. Each player is then dealt or displayed six player cards. The nine total cards are then evaluated to determine if players hold three or more same-suited cards of the color selected by the player with the mandatory 9-card wager. Similarly, the optional 3-card, 6-card and 9-card bonus wagers require at least 2 flush cards, 3 flush cards and 5 flush cards, respectively, to support a wager payout.
