Patent

CA 2289266

The present invention relates to poker game and discloses a method of selecting a joker card after each player makes an ante and is dealt five cards. A joker card is selected at random from a plurality of elements, each corresponding to one of the cards of the deck. Players view their hands and then decide whether to continue playing or to fold, basing their judgments on the available game combinations and on the random-selected joker card intended to increase the rank of a game combination. If the game is continued, the players' game combinations are compared with one another in accordance with the rank: order of winning poker hands, account being taken of the possibility of getting the highest winning hand of five cards of the same suit. The invention makes it possible to modify the traditional five-card stud poker game by introducing, without jeopardizing the poker game protection, one of the already available 52 cards as a wild card (joker) which is changed with every new hand. A random symbol, e.g. a picture of the selected card, is presented to the players on an electronic display.
