SCHOOL FOR CARD PLAYERS.

A. n. Y. says: The dealer turns Il
down. and the next player In a four hand
game. playing partners. makes II next.
II turns out that he did not have =
trump. but made 1t on principle. Is this
allowed?
Yes. A player can name anything he
pleases for a trump when the dealer
turns 1t down. except the same suit as
turned. He takes a chance, whether he
has three trumps or none.
c. A. *. says In dealing for the draw.
4 faces one OF BIS cards. gives B
another card, to which c objects. saying
b must take the faced card. Did Hoyle
-ccver this point in his writings?
Both A and are in error 3 cannot
take the faced card, and A has no right
to give him another card in its place
until all the others have been helped. In
Guiding the dealer himself Hoyle died
about 100 years before poker was in
vented.
A. P. says: A opens a Jack, raises
it the limit and all others drop. 1t then
turns out that A had no openers and q
had only four flush. This is unfair to
Z, who had a pair of queens, but would
not come In for the double raise.
II both and b had passed, C would
have opened and would have been raised
by both A and B. How is It unfair for
him to have only one player to contend
against instead OF two?
L. NJ says: Third hand plays to
trick, the winning club In picking up
the trick he flnds that two cards ara
stuck together, and on counting his
hand finds that he played both. He
cetaches the underneath card without
letting any one see il and puts II back
in his hand. The declarer demands
that the card be placed on the table.
The player objects, on the ground that
Il Is not exposed, as his partner did
not see any portion OF Its face. The
declarer insists that he can call either
OF two cards played to a trick"
The declsrer is correct Law ~
makes no reservation on account OF one
OF the two cards played to trick not
being exposed II they are played 81

declarer can call which he pleases ana
leave the other as exposed.
