99

Setup

Drink of choice. deck of cards. And at least 2 people.

Rules to drink by

Deal 4 cards out to each player. Player to the left of the dealer starts. Object is to be the last player to put the total over 99.
4 “safe” cards are:
King- equals 0
10- subtract 10 from the total
9- automatic 99
4- reverses order
All other cards you add up the total face value.
Aces are 1 and Jacks and Queens are 10. Ex. The first player lays a Queen and says,10. Second player lays an 8 and says, 18. You keep going around until the total reaches 99. The next person who puts the total over 99 is out and that continues until there is one player left. That person is at the top of the waterfall and the person who wa out first is on the bottom.
Takes a little bit to catch on, but once you do it’s a great game.
