Rules of the game. The origin of the game is unknown. The rules of the game are told by Aaron Barnhart. A standard deck of 52 cards is used. Before the game, each player places a pre-agreed bet (the amount of money) in the bank. The first and the subsequent dispenser are determined by a lot. The sender carefully shuffles the deck, removes it and gives each player 3 cards, the remaining deck is put in a closed pile in the center of the table. The first stage in the game is the exchange of cards. Each player has the right to exchange up to three of his cards with cards in the remaining deck. The exchange of one card is equal to one bet, that is, if a player changes one of his cards, he enters one bet into the bank, if he changes two of his cards, he introduces a double bet, etc. The first player changes to the left of the handler, then all other players clockwise. When exchanging a player puts his card under the bottom of the pile with cards, and he takes the card from its top. As soon as the exchange is over, the second stage is the opening of the cards. Players open their cards and the player who has the most points wins the pot. If several players who have the same number of points, and which is the largest in the game, then the draw of the bank is transferred to a new game in which all the players who have played before play. The cost of cards in points: the king - 10 points, the lady - 10 points, the jack - 10 points; All other cards are considered at their par value; Ace - 1 point. The hand of the cards of the player who wins the pot is called the hand of the devil.
