- The player presses the "Deal" button, and 5 cards are dealt from a standard 52-card deck.
- The player chooses which cards to hold and which to discard. The held cards are sent to the primary hand, and the discarded cards stay in the discard hand.
- The player presses the "Draw" button.
- From the remaining deck, cards are randomly drawn to complete both the primary and discard hands. The replacement cards are drawn from the same deck.

- The result from the primary hand is multiplied by the result from the discard hand, and the resulting score is awarded to the player.
