It is standard deck playing card game played with a special board having eight compartments for the money. It is the original version of the game of Tripoley.
All cards are dealt out, except one which determines the "pay suit". Each hand has three stages. In the first players collect the pot from some compartments for the appropriate cards or card combinations. The second stage is similar to Poker with a smaller variety of valuable combinations: players bet on who has the best set of cards of the same rank. In the third stage players lay down cards in a sequence till their total does not exceed 31. The player who laid the last card gets money from the other players and starts a new sequence.
