1 . A method for creating a winning sequence after meeting a betting criterion on a gaming table in a gaming system, the method comprising:
 a player placing an entire stack on the gaming table according to a predetermined bet amount for a game to be played;   initiating an interrupt signal to interrupt a normal winning flow of the game, whereby the interrupt signal assigns a winning priority to the player based on the predetermined bet;   comparing a game sequence of the player with an existing first winning sequence complying with the betting criterion on the gaming table;   restricting addition of playing cards on the gaming table while the comparing is going on; and   allowing a person to play for a betting amount lower than lower than a value of the betting criterion for creating a lower value winning sequence; and   restricting the player to play for the lower value winning sequence to maintain playing quorum for the winning sequence.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the initiating an interrupt signal is interrupting the normal winning flow of a poker game before a river card is played on the gaming table, whereby river card is a final card of one gaming cycle on the gaming table. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein interrupting the normal winning flow of the poker game comprises winning a poker hand without seeing an entire flop sequence while no player folds playing hands on the gaming table. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein the river card player marks end of the flop sequence. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the existing first winning sequence is compared with the winning sequence based on a set of playing cards already on the gaming table and the set of playing cards composing the flop. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the winning sequence is created during at least one of the following stages:
 a preflop stage;   a flop stage; and   a turn come out stage.   
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein both the winning sequence and the existing first winning sequence prevail over the lower value winning sequence on the gaming table. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising restricting entry of the winning sequence and the first winning sequence into the lower value winning sequence such that prejudice against an equally likely winning situation for the lower value winning sequence is overcome. 
     
     
         9 . A method for comparing strength of a plurality of hands in a betting game played on a gaming table in a gaming system, the method comprising:
 creating a winning sequence for a best combination of a predetermined number of playing cards for a flop sequence of the betting game;   counting a strength of a best pair of cards for a preflop sequence of the betting game; and   assigning prevailing priority to a freeze winning sequence over remaining winning sequences on the gaming table in the gaming system.   
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the creating a winning sequence for a best combination of a predetermined number of playing cards for a flop sequence of the betting game comprises: a best combination of five cards winning a playing hand; and a best combination of five cards winning a playing hand when a flop reaches a playing turn. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein counting a strength of a best pair of cards for a preflop sequence of the betting game comprises counting strength of best pair of cards and not counting a potential strength of a playing hand for a preflop sequence. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the assigning prevailing priority to a freeze winning sequence over remaining winning sequences on the gaming table in the gaming system comprises assigning prevailing priority to a stronger preflop sequence. 
     
     
         13 . A system comprising
 a gaming table;   a deck of playing cards;   a gaming dealer;   a plurality of players, wherein the system is operable by a method of:   a player placing an entire stack on the gaming table according to a predetermined bet amount for a game to be played;   initiating an interrupt signal to interrupt a normal winning flow of the game comprising winning a poker hand without seeing an entire flop sequence while no player folds playing hands on the gaming table, whereby the interrupt signal assigns a winning priority to the player based on the predetermined bet;   comparing a game sequence of the player with an existing first winning sequence complying with the betting criterion on the gaming table;   restricting addition of playing cards on the gaming table while the comparing is going on; and   allowing a person to play for a betting amount lower than lower than a value of the betting criterion for creating a lower value winning sequence; and   restricting the player to play for the lower value winning sequence to maintain playing quorum for the winning sequence.   
     
     
         14 . The system of  claim 13 , wherein the gaming table comprises a staking table.
