Temple is a very simple gamble with cards , which basically only differs from Pharo in that the lappé , paroli etc. are omitted .
As a field of application one is chalk strokes temple-like figure drawn on the table that has as many fields such as various cards are available: If one with Whistkarten tempelt, so it takes thirteen fields (for two to Ace) is with Piquetkarten played so required one mind.
The banker then withdraws the cards as with the Pharo. The bank wins on the left, the punchers win on the right .
