This is a variation of the same mindless game you played as a kid played on a blackjack size table with a six deck shoe.
All cards are ranked according to their poker value and aces are always high.
The player and the dealer each get one card. If the player's card beats the dealer's card then the player wins even money. If the dealer's card beats the player's card the player loses. If the player elects to go to war then he must double his bet, the dealer then burns three cards before giving both the player and himself a second card. If the player's second card either beats or ties the dealer's second card then the player wins even money on the raise and the original wager is a push.
