Blazing Bullseye

On December 11, 2020, Blazing Bullseye began a field trial at the Venetian. Except for Saigon 5 Card, it's tough to compare it to any other game. Despite the somewhat intricate rules, it is a straightforward game of chance.

Rules of Blazing Bullseye

1. This game is played with a 52-card deck.
2. Each card has a baccarat-style point value, as follows:
• Aces = 1 point
• 2 to 9 = pip value
• 10's and face cards = 0 points
3. The "Main" is the most crucial wager. There are other side bets such as Tie, Suits, and Bullseye.
4. Following the conclusion of wagering, the dealer will deal each player and himself with five cards. The cards given to the dealer are dealt face down.
5. The player will form a three-card hand and a two-card hand.
6. To "qualify," the total points in the 3-card hand must be evenly divisible by 10, which is required.
7. If a three-card hand is possible with a total equally divisible by ten, the two-card hand will be graded as follows, from highest to lowest:
• Any face card and the ace of spades
• A pair, in the order of aces highest to two's lowest in poker.
• Two face cards with different designs.
• The final digit of the two cards' combined points (as in baccarat)
8. The dealer will do the same once the player has set his hand, presumably maximizing the two-card hand where the three-card hand qualifies.
9. The Main stake loses if the player does not have a qualifying three-card hand.
10. Otherwise, the Main bet will push if the dealer does not have a suitable three-card hand.
11. Otherwise, if the player has the better two-card hand, the Main bet will be paid out according to the two-card hand:
• Aces of spades and any face card = 5:1
• Any pair= 3:1
• Two mixed face cards = 2:1
• All other wins = 1:1
12. Otherwise, the Main bet will lose if the dealer has the better two-card hand.
13. Otherwise, the Main bet will push if the player and dealer have equal-ranking two-card hands.
14. Tie is a side bet that pays 8~1 if the Player and Dealer have equal-valued hands, even if none of them qualifies in the three-card hand.
15. Bullseye is a side bet that pays out dependent on the player's hand's amount of face cards, as follows:
• Five face cards = 200:1
• Four face cards = 20:1
• Three face cards = 10:1
16. The Suit is a side bet that pays out according to the number of cards in the player's longest suit:
• Five suited cards = 20:1
• Four suited cards = 5:1
• Three suited cards = 1:1
