THE TABLE
To play The New Cards Game we need a table, which has the form of a circular
sector, almost a semi.-circle, simlar to a table of Black Jach or of the
carribean
poker table,(FIG 1)
on the external part of the circle ther are some boxes for:
the player's card,
box for the positioning of the coin for the J.P.A.,
the box for the positioning of the stackes, ( FIG 2)
CARDS
4) Six bunches of cards are needed.(type poker or staircase forty)each of them
made
of 52 cards for a total of 312. Every bunch has 13 cards for seed spades and
clubs
(black) - hearts and diamonds (red). The 13 cards of every seed are composed
by
an ace, nine cards of the facial value from 2 to 10 and three figures.
The New Cards Game the cards assume their facial value, the ace is always
worth 1,
the figures are worth 10.
THE GAME
The players perform their stake inside the boxes dra,"m on the carpet, and
you/they
can aim in one or two of the present combinations. The present combinations
are
Red - Black - Equal - Contrary - and they are two to two winners or losers, as
we'll
see later on.
Example ( FIG 3)
Red-equal
Red-contrary
Black-equal
Black-contrary
After the players have aimed at one or two of the present combinations in the
box of
the stake, and after playing the J.P.A., the employee will begin the

After positioning a well visible card in front of each box and with note a
facial
value that varies from 1 to 10, he will begin to turn his own cards in line
one after
the other until he gets a score that can vary from a minimum of 21 to a
maximum of
30, therefore the bench with 20 throws cards, while with any score that varies
from
21 to 30 arrests him.
The first card that the employee will position in his/her own line will
determine if
the Black or the Red is winning, according to the color of the suit of the
cards,
clubs and spades the Black wins, diamond and hearts the Red wins,
If the last card that the employee positions in his/her own line to effect the
score
that is able that can vary from 21 to 30 is the same color (not necessarily of
equal
seed) at the one that determined the win of the combination of the black or
the red,
the combination of the equal will win, on the contrary if it is a different
color, the
combinatin of the contrary will win.
Pratctically,as it is explained in the demonstration, the first card that the
bench has
thrown it is of black color, in this case it the black color will win, the
card that has
served for getting the score that varies from 21 to 30 is instead of red
color, this will
determine the Nvin of the combination of the contrary... .. it means therefore
that
black and contrary win, while red and equal are losers.

TO HALVE OF THE STAKES
After having determined the winning conlbinations (as per above statement)
we'll find a situation in which the bench will have gaineda certain score,
that varies
from 21 to 30, and each player will have a card that will varies from 1 to 10.
Considering the points of the bench 21 equal to 1, 22 peer to 2, 23 peer to 3,
24
peer to 4, 25 peer to 5, 26 peer to 6, 27 equal a7, 28 peer to 8, 29 peer to
9, and in
end 30 equal to 10, there will be some conditions of equality, between the
score of
the bench and the score of the cards placed in front of each player. Such
equality
will involve the loss of half of the stakes on all the four combinations Red-
black-
equal - Contrary,
even if winning. Only in the case in which the score determined by the bench
is 29
and therefore 9 and the player has the turned card equal to a 9 there will be
no
cutting in half of the stake of the stakes. To avoid the loss of half of the
stake the
J.P.A can be played.
J.P.A.
The J.P.A. it is a insured progressive jackpot as, by aiining the stake a
token
(each Firm will decide the value of it ) in a special electronic mechanism,
before the
employee of the Gambling House has announced "rien ne va plus" it will have
two
functions.
1) it will serve both to increase a visible progressive prize in a special
display
that will be won only in case of equality among the score of the sum of the
cards on
the line of the bench equal to 29 (nine) and the card placed by the employee
at the
beginning in front of the box of the stake of the player that has 9. Only in
this case
should there be any winning combinations, they ares will be always paid at
par,
while those losers will be withdrawn by the employee.
2) as an insurance, that is to say that the at having aiYned J.P.A. in the
case of
equality among the value of the card placed by the employee at the beginning
in
front the box of the stake of the players can be from 1 to 10 (except 9) and
the
score obtained in her own line of cards from the bench from, 21to 30, that is
to say
from 1 to 10 (excluding 29 that would be 9) the stake on the four combinations
Black Red Equal Contrary will be not cut in half, whether they are winners or
losers .
