Abstract

An improved method of playing a casino-type poker game which can be played as either a table game or computer video game is disclosed wherein a player, by making an additional wager, can draw a sixth card so as to make the best poker hand from the six cards, provided the sixth card could possibly result in the player's obtaining a straight or better; and further, wherein the amount of the payback on the second wager varies depending upon the first five cards.
