The invention is similar to the Blackjack game and simpler than Mahjong that can be easily learned and played at home among friends or in the Las Vegas type casinos with strangers. The standard 52 poker cards are used. The game can be played by two people up to more than 10 people. Each player is dealt with 2 cards face-down to start the game. Then, each player takes turn to either draw a card from the top of the remaining deck or take the discarded card from the preceding player. The objective is to come up with a 3-card hand of 21 points. A simple logic and choice are made in the anticipation of the 3rd card in order to derive and achieve a winning hand of 21 points before the other players do. The winner collects a fixed bet from a single player or everyone depending on where the winning card comes from.
