The ace is the highest ranking card; all other cards are ranked by their value regardless of suit.
(High←) A, K, Q, J, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 (→Low)

The player places the initial bet within the posted limits and thereafter can place a Tie bet.
The dealer deals one card face up card to each player and then one to himself.

If the player’s card has the higher rank than the dealer’s, the player wins and is paid even money or 1:1, if the dealer’s card has the higher rank then the player loses his bet. However, if they both have the same rank and a Tie bet was placed the player is paid at a rate of 10:1 for the wager.

If the player’s card has the equal rank to the dealer’s, the player has the option to Surrender or Go to War.

• Surrender

  The player surrenders the game they lose half of their bet.

  Go to War

  If the player chooses to go to War, the player places the additional bet equal to the original bet, the dealer then also has to place a bet equal to the player’s. One extra card then will be drawn for both the player and dealer to decide the game. If the player’s extra card has the higher or equal rank to the dealer’s, the player wins the War and gets all the wars. When the player and dealer have cards of equal rank, the player not only wins, but is also paid a bonus equal to the original bet.
