This is usually done by dealing two cards at a time to each player followed by two face up on the table, and then two more cards to each player, and another two face up on the table. The dealer then deals four cards to each player and lays four more face up on the table. The dealer for this game is sometimes selected by having each player cut the deck, with the lowest cut card winning the deal. Cards rank Ace (1)-10, with face cards having no numerical value. Standard 52 card deck with jokers removed. It is sometimes misspelled as “cassino.” Despite its long history, there has been little variation in the game rules throughout the years. This is a tremendously fun game that seems little known, but has actually been around for centuries.
