    Fan-tan - a form of gambling previously popular in southern China. Literally: repeated division. A cross is drawn in the center of an ordinary table, marked 1, 2, 3 and 4, for placing the bet. The banker on another side places a bamboo mat and puts on a double handful of small buttons, beads, coins, or dried beans, which he covers part of the buttons with a small bowl. When all bets are placed, the bowl is removed and the croupier uses a small bamboo stick to remove the buttons from the heap, four at a time as a "pack", this action is called "dividing" or "packing", until the final batch is reached, the game result is the number of leftover in the last batch.
