This game, sometimes known as "Bluff," differs from "Draw" Poker in several
particulars--viz.:
1. There is no filling of hands, each player retaining the cards first
dealt to him.
2. Each person puts up an agreed amount by way of ante. As a matter of
convenience, it is frequently arranged that each player in turn puts in for
all. To avoid dispute as to whose turn it may be a pocket-knife, known as
the "buck," is passed round, resting with the player whose turn it is to
"chip" for the remainder. Having done his duty, he passes the buck to his
neighbour on the left, who chips for the next deal, and passes the buck to
_his_ next neighbour, and so on in rotation.
