Page "Passe-dix" Paragraph 4
from
Wikipedia
Each gamester holds the box by turns, and the other players follow his chance ; every time he throws a point under ten he, as well as the other players, loses the entire stakes, which go to the banker.
Every time he throws a point above ten ( or passes ten -- whence the name of the game ), the banker must double the player's stakes and the stakes of all those who have risked their money on the same chance.
