It is played with cards in this manner :
a pack of cards is displayed on the table so that the face of each card may be seen by the spectators .
The man who keeps the bank ,
as it is termed ,
and who is called the banker ,
sits by the table with another pack of cards ,
and a bag containing money ,
some of which is displayed ,
or sometimes instead of money ,
chips ,
or small pieces of ivory or other substance are used .
The parties who play with the banker ,
are called punters or pointeurs .
Suppose the banker and A ,
a punter ,
wish to play for five dollars ,
the banker shuffles the pack which he holds in his hand ,
while A lays his money intended to be bet ,
say five dollars ,
on any card he may choose as aforesaid .
The banker then runs the cards alternately into two piles ,
one on the right the other on the left ,
until he reaches ,
in the pack ,
the card corresponding to that on which A has laid his money .
If ,
in this alternative ,
the card chosen comes on the right hand ,
the banker takes up the money .
If on the other ,
A is entitled to five dollars from the banker .
Several persons are usually engaged at the same table with the banker .
