Title:
BOUNTY POKER GAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2006059244
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method of playing a draw poker game includes the steps of placing a bet on at least one hand; receiving a deal of five playing cards from a standard 52-card deck; choosing which cards to hold and which cards to discard; drawing replacement cards; and receiving a payout. The amount of the payout is based on the poker hand ranking of each resulting hand. Unlike conventional draw poker, the discarded cards are placed back into the deck prior to the draw. The amount of the payout may also be based on whether any of the discarded cards is drawn as a replacement card. The game may be implemented as video poker on a computer network, wherein a server acts as the "house" and a player plays by using a client network terminal. The video poker game may enable a player to play multiple hands simultaneously.
