Excerpt from The Game of Draw Poker The existing and increasing popularity of Draw Poker as a means of amusement to the better classes of American people, and the various meth ods of playing the game - some of which are radi cally wrong and the direct results of ignorance amply justify a brief and simple treatise on Poker as a pastime. I have so frequently played - this game with ladies and gentlemen, who either did not know its elementary parts, or differed materially as to its cardinal points, that I have become convinced that some easily accessible and easily understood book of reference is absolutely necessary for the preservation of good feeling among such players.
