The pegs being even, at sixty holes each, is 2 to 1, or even more, in favor of the dealer. In every stage of the game, until you come within the last twenty holes, if the non-dealer ia three points ahead, it ia even betting; but when you gat nearer towards the close, a point cr two makes a material difference.
