All evening long, four card players had been pestered by a kibitzer. When he went out of the room for a moment, they hit on a plan to silence him. " Let's make up a game no one ever heard of," one of them said. "Then he'll have to shut up."
The kibitzer returned. The dealer tore two cards in half and gave them to the man on his left. He tore the corners off three cards and spread them out in front of the man opposite him. Then he tore five cards in quarters, gave 15 pieces to the man on his right and kept five himself. " I have a mingle," he said. " I'll bet a dollar."
"I have a snazzle," the next man announced. "I'll raise you a dollar."
The third man folded without betting.
The fourth, after due deliberation, said, "I've got a farfle. "I'll raise you two dollars."
The kibitzer shook his head vehemently. "You're crazy," he said.
"You're never going to beat a mingle and a snazzle with a lousy farfle!"
