remain, the same banker
remain, the same banker plays another round. If a  <br>
player makes more than one bet and doesn't lose  <br>
any of them in the first 19 cards he collects for all  <br>
the bets but leaves them ride, free, for one more  <br>
card turning, and may, of course, continue further.  <br>
A bet on two or more cards is considered a multiple  <br>
bet in this context (but how are the payoffs  <br>
figured?). (This game was enjoyed.)  <br>

rcd. uses a 5 x 5 layout. Players alternate in sliding and  <br>
object is to connect any two sides with a chain including at  <br>
least three blocks. He'll give me the letters when he gets back  <br>
and we get together.  <br>
Another call from <u>Martin</u>. He forgot to ask me if I knew anything  <br>
about a game <u>THE DEADLY DOUBLE</u> which was in a newspaper  <br>
article in 1967 (see 3/13/67). Told him I had something on it  <br>
but found it was very sketchy. He is mentioning it in a column  <br>
on coincidences. I was able to tell him it wasn't at all like  <br>
<u>MAH-JONG</u>. The clipping prior to the one I have stated that the  <br>
game didn't exist at all.
 
<u>Phil Orbanes</u> called and we talked for quite a while. He prefers  <br>
not asking <u>Bob Hallowell</u> for the 6 games (<u>XANDO</u>, etc.) that  <br>
he already has and instead to come up with 6 new ones  <br>
between us. he thinks we can do it it one brainstorming session.  <br>
He, and I agree, thinks we should have other  <br>
inexpensive type games as well as p. & p.  <br>
<u>Bob Hallowell</u> owes </u>Reiss</u> in the neighborhood of $20,000.
