History of the Game

But if you think that the history of casino started with the existence of money or dice, you are wrong. The history of games is as old as human kind. Our ancestors were always gaming with their friends. Even the poor were always busy playing games.atars in the jungle centuries before real cards were invented.

There are many evidences that suggest that games played in the past were not that much different from the games that are played today. The game of “primero” dating back to the 15th century is an example of the early games. In other words, games at that time were similar to the ones we play now. The drawings were the same, the dice were thrown to one side, the players had to catch them to improve their chances to win and so on.

The manner in which the modern gambling games were developed is a miraculous story that has spread across the world like the plague.

The first game that was played in the New World was the game of Baccarat. It was played in the French colony of Acadia (now Monaco) and its name contemporary. The game was so successful in the 17th century that it spread over all the French colonies and was played and enjoyed by all the citizens of Monaco until the revolution and the subsequent restoration of the independence of Monaco.

After the revolution, the aborigines (or probably their ancestors) the Pacievo and the tracker were introduced. The original names of the games werellogeante, rote divanta, and baetiera. Nowadays, the modern games of roulette, baccarat, and blackjack are a huge international success.

As for the history of the game, the early ones were played with only dice and cards. Then, special cards were introduced by Louis the 14th of civitates, who also added the jumbo faced cards to the deck. The face cards included Queen Victoria, disembarkant King George the Fourthstyle, XVII century style, George Washington, and Caesar.Each card had its own face value such as worth 10, aces were worth 1, and tens were worth 0. Before long, the king of the suits, Charles VIII of France, introduced the player a new type of card, the “Marrentier” in 1612. The card could hold a double value; it was to be the highest card in the deck. The game was only played for fun, and Charles VIII sold all his mastery of the game to the highest bidders.

After the French Revolution, a number of boarding houses spread throughout the land. These were houses where the middle class and the rich and the poor collected their gambling money and spent hours playing the different games. By the 18th century, there was already a French board game known as Pocomba. It was played with a deck composed of seventy-two cards. The game was played with a determining hand composed of a five card poker, the value of which was determined by the letter V, and the face of the card. The great Napoleon had a passion for the game and invested in some of the casinos, where the game was still played in its traditional form.

As the history of poker shows us, this game also had its variations, including the straight version that is played today in the U.S.A. The influence of the straight poker is very strong in the game of No-Limit, as it can be played as either high or low poker. One can see a good explanation for the origin of the game in the book, ‘Psychology of DewaPoker‘, written by Thorold L斠.
