Play Your Cards Right

Who would have thought that all those Saturday nights sat in front of banal light entertainment shows would spawn a drinking game.

"Nice to see you.....etc"

This is quite obviously a spin off of the popular Brucie game show, ahh, how we used to sit at home and laugh when Bruce told this weeks audience that they were so much better than last weeks, halcyon days!

Any number of people can join in Play Your Cards Right but only two participate at a time, one dealer and one player. The dealer turns over the top card of the deck to start. The player must then guess whether the next card will be higher or lower than the face-up card. Each card turned up is placed in a discard pile. If correct the player continues to guess until he is wrong. After a wrong guess the player must take as many drinks as there are cards in the discard pile. If after guessing higher or lower the next card turned up matches the top card on the pile, the player drinks twice the total of the cards in the discard pile. Needless to say this is a bad thing for the player and quite amusing to everyone else.
