How the hand runs

One card sits face up. Say whether the next will be higher or lower. Get it right and the pile grows; get it wrong and it goes back to the deck.

In order

Set the stake and deal. The stake becomes the pile.
Call Higher or Lower against the card on the table.
Each correct call multiplies the pile by 1.55.
A tie leaves the pile untouched; the hand carries on.
Press Collect the pile at any point to move it to your balance.
A wrong call ends the hand and the pile with it. Dealing again costs nothing.

The arithmetic of stopping

The run pays more the longer it goes and ends the moment it does not. There is no clever moment to stop, because every call is independent of the last: the deck is shuffled anew each time and remembers nothing.

Aces are high, twos are low, and suits count for nothing but decoration.

A fresh allowance arrives every three hours, and an empty balance is refilled at no charge. Buying anything remains optional.

The pile is virtual. Glints are counters kept in this browser. They cannot be withdrawn, exchanged for money, goods or vouchers, traded, gifted or passed to another player, and no hand here awards a prize.

A single court card lying on dark cloth — One card, face up, deciding nothing of consequence.

Plain speaking

A run proves nothing

Success in social casino games does not imply future success in real-money gambling.

High Card is a room of pure chance dressed up as a decision. It copies no commercial product, points at no betting service and prepares you for neither. Real gambling costs real money and behaves quite differently.
