Rules to drink by

This is a great starter game. Its quick and fun.

One person is the dealer but they play the game just like anyone else. No cards are delt to start.

Round 1: “Smoke or Fire”
In turn, each person guesses “black or red” (smoke or fire) and the dealer fips the card infront of them. If the person is right they tell someone else to drink ‘one.’ If they are wrong they take the drink.

Round 2: “Higher or Lower”
In turn, each player guesses “higher or lower” than the card placed infront of them from the previous round. The dealer then places one more card infront of the player. If they are right they give two drinks. If they are wrong they take two.

Round 3: “In-between or Outside”
In turn, each player quesses “in-between or outside” the cards infront of them. Same as before accept three drinks this time.

Round 4: “Suit”
In turn, each player quesses suit. If they are right they give four, if they are wrong they drink four.

Round 5: “Up the River”
Dealer places 8 cards face down in to columns of 4. The first two are worth one drink, second set of two are worth two and so on. The 4 cards on the left are “give” cards the other 4 on the right are “take” cards. The dealer flips over the cards in order starting with the lefthand “give one” card. If a player has the card they give another player a drink. Then the dealer flips the “take one” card. If a player has that card they take a drink.

Example: One player has two kings on the table infront of them. The dealer flips the “take four” card and its a King. The player takes 8 drinks.

Other rules:
-Play the game fast. Its more fun. If a person is being to slow, just flip the card. They didn’t guess so they got it wrong.
-On rounds 2 and 3, if the card fliped over is one the person already has they drink double.
