RULES:
This is a drinking game. If you would like to play without alcohol, use water instead and add this rule: whenever a player goes to the bathroom, they are eliminated from the game. The last player standing wins.

Shuffle a standard 52 card deck of playing cards and deal a 6 card wide pyramid of face down cards on the table. Deal Four cards to each player. Players look at their cards once and then set them back down. A player that’s not participating begins flipping over cards one by one, starting with the bottom row of the pyramid and going upwards. If a player has a card of the same rank as the one flipped, or if they want to bluff, they can call on the other players to take a drink. The number of drinks depends on the row number. For the bottom row players must drink once. For the next row they drink twice and so on up to the final row where they drink 6 times.

If a player thinks the caller is bluffing, they can challenge them. If the caller was bluffing, they must drink twice the amount assigned. If the caller wasn’t bluffing, they reveal the card, and the other player must drink twice the amount assigned. Keep playing until you complete the pyramid.

Thanks for watching, and remember: drink responsibly.
