THE EQUINOX
The loser has again the right to challenge by putting up
the amount of the increased pool, a third card being drawn
and the hands finally decided on the above principle.
(Example: Deuce of Hearts, Deuce of Spades and Three
of Spades beat Deuce of Diamonds, Deuce of Clubs
and Ace of Hearts.]
The banker's advantage is in getting the first card free,
but if he challenge he must put up the amount of the pool.
If the player with the lowest card fail to challenge, his
right passes to the player with the next lowest card, and so on,
till every one has had his opportunity. This rule applies even
to the second challenge, the new challenger taking two cards
on putting up the pool.
