To provide a game for enlarging the wager and win of a player.
Five cards (18, 20, 22, 24, and 26) are initially displayed to the player face down. Above these five cards are three columns, the first column (28) headed "3 CARDS LEFT", and the right column (30) headed "3 CARDS RIGHT". The center column (32) does not have a heading and is identified by its position between the left and right columns (28, 30). All three columns (28, 30, 32) display the payout associated with various combinations of cards in a typical hand of five-card draw poker. The payout for bets on the five-card combinations in the center column 32 includes more possible combinations than are in the left and right columns 28, 30. This is because the center column 32 evaluates five cards and the left and right columns 28, 30 evaluate only three cards.
