Description
- The present patent application claims the benefits of priority of commonly assigned Canadian Patent Application no. 2,598,933, entitled “Jeux de cartes” and filed at the Canadian Intellectual Property Office on Jul. 26, 2007.
- The present invention is related to hazard games, and more particularly to a complementary game for hazard games.
- There is a need for a complementary game which can be played during hazard games.
- A first object of the present invention is to allow a player to play a supplementary bet and choosing an option allowing different gain.
- A second object of the present invention is to allow a player to play a supplementary bet, the gain depending of the option chosen, the amount of the supplementary bet and the combination of the player's hand.
- Other and further objects and advantages of the present invention will be obvious upon an understanding of the illustrative embodiments about to be described or will be indicated in the appended claims, and various advantages not referred to herein will occur to one skilled in the art upon employment of the invention in practice.
- One of the particularities of the present invention is that the player may play to a current hazard game and may also play to a complementary game during the current hazard game. The player may gain a supplementary amount for the complementary game even if he has lost the hand at the current hazard game. The complementary game of the present invention may be played with almost any hazard games, for example Black Jack or Bacarra.
- The complementary game is directed towards a method of playing a complementary game during a hazard game and towards the physical device to play game itself.
- The complementary game for hazard game comprises, in a preferred embodiment, an option grid and a payment table. During a hazard game, the player has the option to play to the complementary game by playing a supplementary amount of money, distinct from the basic amount played for the hazard game. The gain is indicated in the payment table, usually by a multiple of the amount played, depending of the option chosen from the option grid and the combination obtained by the player for the hazard game.
- For the complementary game, the player has to choose one of the options presented in an option grid by the operator of the game (dealer or computer) and has to play a supplementary amount. The complementary game does not affect the current hazard game. The payment table indicates the possible gain depending of the option chosen by the player and depending of the combination obtained by the player. The combination may be, for a card game, a hand composed by FIGUREs (king, queen, jack) or a hand composed by one hand, for example. For a game like Russian roulette, the combination may be a color with an odd or even number, for example.
- The option grid may be operated manually or electronically. The game may be played on a standard game table, on a computer or on a video game, for example.
- For an electronic version of the game, the player may choose an option of the option grid by pushing on a button corresponding to the option he chooses. The option could also be entered by the dealer. If no option is chosen, the regular hazard game is played, without playing to the complementary game. If the option is chosen manually, it could be by writing the option on a physical medium, by placing a token or else on the option grid.
- The complementary game of the present invention is not limited to a particular type of game. It is possible to play to this game with almost any card games in casino. The complementary game may be played with almost any hazard games wherein the game is played with different combination of elements (such as symbol, color, number, etc . . . ). The payment table may be adapted with the hazard game to be played with.
- The complementary game may be played with a game played with only one player or with a plurality of players.
