Note 101 — ACT V.
Reading edition
Hazard was the name of a game at dice. Cotton in the Complete Gamester, 1674 (pp. 67-72), devotes a chapter to it. He remarks:—“Certainly Hazard is the most bewitching game that is played on the dice, for when a man begins to play he knows not when to leave off; and having once accustomed himself to play at Hazard, he hardly ever after minds anything else.”
