Mathematics and Draw Poker

On the moment, the door opened and
Joe Bassett and Sam Pearsall entered
with two strangers. Bassett invited
everybody to drink. so old man Green
hut went behind the bar to attend to
business.
One of the strangers was unmistak-
ably a planter, but the other was q
portly gentleman, whose appearance
was puZzling. He was foppish in his
dress and so we'll groomed as TO sug-
gest that he might be a professional
/ gambler, but the eXpanse Of white lin
en- disclosed by his low cut vest was
not wide enough, and the diamonds in
his shirt were not large enough to be
conclusive evidence. He introduced
himself as Mr.. Hobert, a banker from
Chicago and the planter said his name
was. Titcomb.
az like draw poker" said Mr.. Hobert,
after a game had been proposed and
they were all, excepting old man
Greenhut, seated at the table. az like
draw poker for the opportunity it gives
! a man TO do some scientific calculation.
What makes it fascinating to me is to
observe how accurately the mathemat-
les work out"
Old man Greenhut's eyes cleaned
and his fingers twitched when he heard
this, but he said nothing. Ten Spot
! Ike however, seemed anxious to hear
/ more. How do you reckon them math-
ematics works out?" he asked. 1--WE uns
reckons we plays some skillfui, but we
don't take much stock into the mathe-
matics."
| They lad just received hands in the
first deal, Hobert having anted one dol
lar calls two. and as they had been
| talking, Winterbottom, Pearsall and
Ten Spot Ike had come in, Blaisdell
and Titcomb had dropped and Bassett,
the dealer, had come in.
We'll. I'll tell yOu.' said HObert.
You'll observe that there is SO in the
pot now, and it only costs me one to
draw cards, so I get 9 to 1 in the bet
| ting. Now the chances of filling a four
flush are to AZ. so it's a good bet for
me to come in, assuming that a flush
VIII win. More than likely it will, so I
come in" and he put in a dollar and
called for one card.
WinterbottOm called for three and
caught a third king. Pearsau took
three, but failed to better. Ten Spot
Ike took one to a straight and also
missed, while Bassett took one to
queens up without improving.
Winterbottom bet s.. Pearsall and
Ten Spot Ike dropped. Bassett stayed
Now" said Hobert, you will OBJ
serve that it is no longer a question OF
filling a flush or not filling il, but
! whether a flush is worth backing
against a three card draw and a one
card draw. More than likely it's good
against the one. and there's a fair
| chance against the other, so l raise il
$40, which is not inordinate considering
the size of the pot"
| Winterbottom studied a bit before
playing. Finally, however, he made
| good, WhereuTOn Bassett dropped, and
Hobert was forced to show down. He
had three acres, and of course took the
pot.
| You see," he said, laughing, that
! it was not a flush I was drawing TO, but
I gave you the mathematics of the play
