GWUPS Card Game Plays : Perfect 10

Use Person Cards only.

The objective of this game is to get a Perfect 10, or higher sum than the dealer without going over 10 points.

Perfect 10 is similar to Blackjack, except the goal is to get 10 points, and any Player including the Dealer can Bust without asking for additional cards.

To Play

All players must place their bets.

Dealer (Banker) thoroughly shuffles the cards and any one player may cut the deck, after which the dealer deals two cards face down to each Player, starting with the player to the left of the dealer. The dealer's first card must be dealt face up.

If player's cards add up to a Perfect 10 then he or she automatically wins, unless the dealer also has a Perfect 10, in which case neither one wins or loses. If just the dealer has a Perfect 10, all the other players automatically lose.

Each player and the dealer have one turn per game, starting with the player to the left of the dealer, at which point they can do one or a combination of the following:

  • HIT (request an additional card, usually if player's current sum is 7 or below)
  • STAND (decision to stick with cards whose sum is 8 or higher)
  • BUST (automatically lose because sum is over 10)

The Dealer must Stand if sum is 8 or higher, and Hit if sum is 7 or below

  • All players with sums greater than the dealer’s, win.
  • All players with sums less than the dealer's, lose.
  • All players having sums equal to the dealer's sum, go into a Push (neither win or lose.)
