One or more first cards are revealed. The dealer appropriates wagers which are no longer winnable in view of these first cards. One wagering player may place a second wager based on the one or more card combinations. One or more second cards are revealed. The dealer appropriates wagers which are no longer winnable in view of the one or more second cards. Preferably there are five types of combinations, namely four cards of a single suit, four cards all of a different suit, one pair, two pairs and three cards of a single suit.
