Benefits of technology

[0010]The invention is generally directed to systems and methods for allowing players to play poker-type games including multiple decks, assigning each player a corresponding deck, and allowing each player some capacity to modify the assigned player deck to increase a probability of achieving a winning poker hand.

Problems solved by technology

Where traditional poker games are played using one communal deck of card where cards played that hand are reshuffled back into the deck between each round of play (known as “a hand”)—potentially leading to a very uneven distribution of cards between players—this method of playing introduces the use of multiple decks of cards where played cards are not reshuffled back into the deck between hands.

A system for providing a poker-type card game to a plurality of players is described herein. The system includes a display device for displaying the game, a database for storing a plurality of player decks, and a controller coupled to the database. The controller is configured to provide a plurality of player decks with each of the plurality of player decks including a set of randomly-ordered playing cards, assign a player deck of the plurality of player decks to each of the plurality of players, and conduct a first round of the game. During a round, the controller distributes a player hand to each of the plurality of players. Each of the player hands includes one or more cards being distributed from a corresponding player deck assigned to the player.
