ceedings will mark an epoch in the use of
jack pots.
The whole affair had its origin in the
merest trife, but so did the Punic wars,
for that matter 1t was TO a New York
enthusiast that the idea first occurred of
a prearranged series of poker games
played in different cities throughout the
country by parties of local chip redeem
ers. To take one town only, say Buffalo.
Six poker players have a game on an
evening to be selected. Each man has 81
in the pot and 1t takes s. to open. There
being SIP in the game to start with, II
follows that were four only to stay in at
the opening there would be S32 to win at
the very lowest. Nor need it be pointed
out TO tryo in the game that endless
contingents might arise in which the pot
would much exceed that sum. However,
let it go, as they say on Coney Island, at
1872
Now, under the terms of the compact as
arranged, poker players all over the Union
would have united in these little games
The winner of each does not, however,
pocket his earnings. The $32 in every
case is reserved for grand fund made up
by the hundred odd games so played
throughout the country. That would
make 81. 200 in all. The winning hundred
would meet in convention and arrange for
now set of winners. Twenty games of
five players each woulu be organized
Each man must put up 81 to jack pot as
before, with 50 to open The limit, it
should be stated, is s. all the way through
this series of games.
Well, then, there would be $40 pot in
every instance and twenty of them at
hat. Three men on an average stay in
the game when the jack pot is opened
That would give twenty 1926 jack pots or
