the afternoon, but I have the date with Bob Johnson & Felicia.
When setting up the jackpots at the beginning actually fill<br>
them in with from 1 to 6 chips. Divide 36 of the chips<br>
between the players. (I decided to limit game to 4 players.)<br>
This leaves 2 chips of the 80 which are spares. When a<br>
jackpot is hit the player takes the chips. It is then started<br>
again with a chip of the other color, which is worth 5.<br>
(Incidentally 12 of these chips are divided between the<br>
players.) After this bonus chip, the others placed are the<br>
1 point chips. When a jackpot with a bonus chip is <s>placed</s> hit<br>
a new one is started with 2 bonus chips in the first space.<br>
When a jackpot is hit and no bonus chips remain to be placed,<br>
the game is over.<br>
