i. _Great Cassino_, the ten of diamonds, which reckons for two points. ii. _Little Cassino_, the two of spades, which reckons for one point. iii. _The Cards_ is when you have a greater share than your adversary, and reckons for three points. iv. _The Spades_ is when you have the majority of that suit, and reckons for one point. v. _The Aces_: each of which reckons for one point. vi. _Lurched_ is when your adversary has won the game before you have gained six points. In some deals at this game it may so happen that neither party win anything, as the points are not set up according to the tricks, &c., obtained, but the smaller number is constantly subtracted from the larger, both in cards and points; and if they both prove equal, the game commences again, and the deal goes on in rotation. When three persons play at this game, the two lowest add their points together, and subtract from the highest; but when their two numbers together either amount to or exceed the highest, then neither party scores.
