A method of conducting a wagering game is disclosed. Players may place wagers on a designated player's hand or a banker's/dealer's hand. Once wagers are placed, the designated player and a banker/dealer are each dealt two cards. A point value is established for the two cards based on a scoring system wherein aces count as one point, tens and face cards count as zero points and twos through nine count as their face value. The point values of the player's hand and the banker's/dealer's hand are then compared to determine a winner based on which hand is nearest to nine. For two digit hand values, only the one's digit is used. Winning wagers are paid at 1 to 1 odds. Should a tie outcome occur, all players pay a commission on their wagers whether on the player's hand or the banker's/dealer's hand. In an alternative version, each player plays individually against a banker/dealer.
