Book Description
Excerpt from American or Standard Whist The game OF wrist, as played about a century since, was, in value of count, ten points, to be gained by tricks taken and honors held. We learn, from a treatise by a prominent member of an existing club, why this count was changed in England: Lord Peterborough having one night lost a large sum of money, the friends with whompoints instead of ten, in order to give the loser a chance, at a quicker game; of recovering his loss. The new game was found to be so lively, and money changed hands with such increased rapid ity, that these gentlemen and their friends, all of them leading members of the clubs of the day, continued to play it. We are not informed how Lord Peterborough personally was pleased with the new game, since, because of the dimidiative process, he might have been more speedily than before deprived of his guineas; but it matters not. So that money changed hands rapidly, the English men were delighted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
