Shithead
As I remember it
3 cards face down for each player
3 cards face up on the 3 face down cards
3 cards dealt to each player to be held like a poker hand.
player with the lowest card starts (usually a 3, 3 of hearts for preference)
then each player has to match or beat the number on the card just played, eg a 3 or above could be played on the 3 card.
After playing a card the player picks a card from the pack until they have all gone.
Once all the card from the hand are played then the player plays the 3 face up cards, then the 3 face down cards, when all cards are done the player is a the winner.
If the player cannot play a card higher of of equal value then they must pick up all cards that have been played so far.
Special card values:
2 - can be played on any card with no consequences
8 - Miss a turn
9 - card of a lower value must be played
10 - closes off the cards that have been played. They are then removed from the game and that player plays another card
Queen - change direction of play
Ace - The next player has to pick up all the cards in play unless they have an another ace, a 2 or a 10.
If a player gets 4 cards of the same value then these can also be used like the 10 card and close down the pack.
Hope that helps anyone wanting to try this excellent game!
It can also be sdapted to a drinking game!
