A casino wagering game wherein a player makes a wager and then a dealer and the player are each dealt respective hands. The player and dealer split their respective hand into a high hand and a low hand. Each hand is evaluated to see if it contains a “lucky break” which is a predefined subset of all hands. If the player has a lucky break and the dealer does not, then the player wins. If the dealer has a lucky break and the player does not, then the player loses. If both the player and the dealer have lucky breaks then the wager is resolved based on a comparison of the hands. If neither the player nor the dealer have lucky breaks, then the wager is also resolved based on a comparison of the hands. In addition to physical playing cards, the game can be played using physical Mahjong tiles. The game can also be played in electronic form on a computer, video terminal, portable device, and at an online casino.
