And when he has finished the hand, he will, besides the above, have two other impériales for the twelve tricks, which will give him the game.
PART VII.
WHIST.
A Game at Whist in which you gain every Trick.
Place on the top of the pack twelve cards of the same suit, and arrange them with a false shuffle, by the following operations:
1st. Having taken the thirteen cards in your right hand, put the last one on the top of the packet of the thirty-nine others, which you hold in your left hand.
2nd. Then immediately slide that card, with the three others which follow, on the packet in your right hand.
3rd. Afterwards, again slide the last of this packet on the top of those in your left hand, and proceed as before, to place them with three others, on the top of the pack.
Go on with this routine until the whole of the pack of cards in your left hand are finished.
This false shuffle is a most complete deception.
