You win if both your 2-card hand and your 5-card hand beat the banker's (can be the casino dealer or another player--see below) 2-card hand and 5-card hand. You push if one of your hands beats the dealer. You lose if both hands lose to the banker's hand or if there is a tie (one hand loses, the other pushes). The Banker can be any player or the casino.
