Part 16

At the last drawing each player proceeds as heretofore directed, but the drawing concludes when no more counters are left on the table. The players then, beginning with the eldest hand, are to be paid out of the pool, as far as the money will go; and when that is expended, the others remain unpaid, which is styled a Bankruptcy; lastly, the players should re-unite the counters obtained from the pool with those that were on their cards, and receive payment for them out of the fund reserved at the commencement of the game.

The counters requisite for the payment of the players are:--

For 24 cards 144 times ten.

" 18 " 108 "

" 12 " 72 "

" 6 " 36 "

Consequently, 60 counters should be contributed for every card taken by a player
