SUMARe: the game of logic, skill, memory and luck for all ages.
SUMARe is a game like no other. It allows a player to attempt to predict how their cards compare to other cards. By using different values, the concepts of greater than , less than are able to be studied and taught to a new generation of thinkers in a fun , exciting manner. The players challenge their skills with positive and negative numbers, numbers which are divisible by different values and require critical thinking to maximize the return on their play.
SUMARe Casino and SUMARe Educational consists of a deck of cards ranging from a minimal number to a maximum number, for example #1 thru #10.
In the Educational SUMARe mode, the user can pick the number range, for example 1-100 or -40 to +40. In addition to deciding the number range, which numbers to be displayed on the cards can also be dictated, i.e. number divisible by 4 or 10. This enables the user to learn the numbers in those ranges, as well as both positive and negative numbers and valuations.
The SUMARe CAsino is a simulated betting game.
The game board is a 3x3 grid, for betting purposes in front of each player, labeled as follows: The most left column is labeled “lower”, the middle column- labeled “middle” and the most right column labeled “higher” Bets are placed on this board as described below.

SUMARe is played with any number of desks of standard playing cards, usually 6 or 8 decks but can be only one as well. Ace will be the card with a high value of 14, while a 2 will be the card of the least value. (a King has a value of 13, a Queen has a value of 12, and a Jack has a value of 11) Each card number will be that card’s value.
To begin play: A player places an ante bet on the lowest row on the board, closest to the player, either on an ante “low”, on an ante “middle” or an ante “high”. This bet will depend on whether the player thinks his card will be lesser in value, in between in value or greater in value than the dealer’s 2 cards (individually). The ante bet needs to be of equal or higher value than any subsequent bets.
Following the ante bets: A card will be dealt to the player.
The player will next place an additional bet in the middle row, either on “low”, “middle” or “high”. Once again, depending on whether the player believes his card will be higher in value, in- between in value or greater in value than the house’s two cards. This bet is optional.
Following the second bet; A card is next revealed for the house. In Figure B – house/ dealer’s first revealed card.
A final bet will be placed on the uppermost row. This will depend on whether the player believes his card to be lesser in value, in- between in value or greater in value than the house’s two cards, individually or together.
Following the final bet ; A final card is revealed for the house.(in figure C; house / dealers second revealed card)
