Pharao/Faro?

edit

The picture does not seem to portray a game of faro as described. The players all have cards in front of them, there is a central "pot", and there is no faro layout on the table. It would seem to be a different game. I mention this only because it is used as a visual aide in faro, and would appear to be misleading in that capacity.

Actually looking deeper at the full resolution, this game appears to be basset, which faro descended from, but the play is rather different. Electric Wombat (talk) 00:59, 12 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
