The play of the third hand is much more simple than is that of the second.
The third hand should play his best card, save under one or other of the
three following conditions, viz.:--
1. That the second hand plays a card higher than any card held by the third
hand; the lowest card is then played.
2. If a sequence be held, such as king, queen, knave; queen, knave; ace,
king; &c., then play the lowest or lower card of the sequence.
