About This Edition.

_________

This web-based edition of The Expert at the Card Table has been prepared with the express purpose of making the material easier to learn. The typesetting has been updated, and the formatting made more consistent. A few small errors in the text have been corrected; otherwise, the content remains largely unchanged from the 1902 original.

The odd copyright notices present on some of the illustrations have all been removed. Diagrams have been kept as large as possible and placed directly after the relevant reference in the text. I’ve purposely kept Smith’s illustrations large to aid learning.

This edition of The Expert at the Card Table is fully searchable. Use the search bar in the top lefthand corner of the site to search the text for keywords and phrases.
