A is right. There ard probably as many ways of NAV.
Ing that hand as there are poker clubs en- earth. Tho
right way gives TO A tho privilege OF discardinr his odd
Jack and drawing to the flush. lie need not call tho
attention OF any player to his discard. which. however, |
must DC put in It's proper place In regular order with
the other discards. SO that 1t can be shown after the |
hand Is played out. II b had dropped out A would
have been entitled to the pot on his " bobtail flush" and
he woula have been justified In using GYtling guns and
