They used a different deck of cards, and the rules were different, too. A deck of cards consisted of only 20 cards in 4 different suites—the ace, king, queen, jack, and ten were the only cards in the deck. Only four players played at a time, and all 20 cards were dealt out, five to each player. You played the hand you got—there was no drawing. Hand rankings were different, too—at least they had different names.
There was no such thing as a straight flush—any flush, because of the limited number of cards in the deck, was automatically a straight flush in fact, a royal flush , but since there were no cards lower than ten in the deck, there was nothing to differentiate. The rules were similar to our modern game of five card draw, jacks or better. This was the game Doc Holliday was known to play. Faro is a house-banked game. Players bet on the ranking of a card, but only two cards are used—the ace and the king.
The right rail of the game shows current level, remaining time, and cumulative game score. At the bottom of the right rail there are 4 buttons for puasing the game, undoing up to 3 moves, controlling game sounds, and music control. Build the four foundations in suit from ace to king. Cards in the tableau can be played on top of another in sequence down, while alternating suit color.
You can place any card on an empty spot in the tableau. Cards do not automatically move to the foundations, though you can double click them to move them instead of dragging them across.
Once a card has been laid to a foundation it can not be brought back into the game. All your play data is stored in your web browser. The game has 25 turns with betting rounds in between, starting with the soda and ending with the hock the last card turned.
All bets are settled at the end of a turn and new bets are placed. Loser cards only win for the banker, who collects the chips placed on the losing card on the table, unless the bet was coppered.
If the bet was coppered the player wins, their winnings is equal to the amount of the bet placed. Winning cards win for the player who bet on them.
Their winnings is equal to the bet amount placed on the winning card and paid out by the banker. If the winning and losing card are the same in a turn this is called a split. The dealer collects half the chips placed on that card. When the deck runs dry, and the hock is disposed of, cards a collected and reshuffled. This is a fresh deal. Playing resumes as normal. Hi Chris, I did some research into this and had a hard time finding any actual rules for the original game Bassetta.
The closest I could find was the Wikipedia article on Basset, which I think may be an English derivative. I also found a couple of articles speaking of the game in historical context, but not of actual gameplay. Below is the Wikipedia article I mentioned. Best of luck, and I hope this helps in some way.
