Each player deals in his turn; the order of dealing goes to the left.
* * * * *
The player on the dealer's right cuts the pack, and in dividing it he
must not leave fewer than four cards in either packet; if in cutting or
in replacing one of the two packets a card be exposed, or if there be
any confusion of the cards or a doubt as to the exact place in which the
pack was divided, there must be a fresh cut.
* * * * *
When the player whose duty it is to cut has once separated the pack he
can neither re-shuffle nor re-cut the cards.
Should the dealer shuffle the cards, after the pack is cut, the pack
must be cut again.
* * * * *
The fifty-two cards shall be dealt face downward. The deal is not
completed until the last card has been dealt face downward.
