re: Card games played at the camp

We play the red arse...

It is a three card game where one of the three is face up...high card and ties automatically in...then everyone else can be in or out.
In people show...winner drags pot all losers match...
Pots can get really big...

Casino, and most of the others stated above.

have a game called Hurricane, just like 2 card guts (pairs are boss, then A high from there). except it's progressive and can get expensive. never play more than 25 cents ante.

deal out to everyone, look at ur cards and put them in middle holding them face down with everyone else doing the same thing.

dealer will count to 3 and ON 3, you leave hand up if you want to play. you have to withdraw it if wanting to get out. NO FLINCHING or that counts as leaving it up.

whoever is left plays heads up, or the next 2 cards in the deck (the bitch).

you lose, match pot. it's bad when you're the only one playing and then lose to the bitch. or 3 people play and now you have 2 match pots plus the antes coming for the next deal out.

play thru the deck, always having 2 cards at the very end (the bitch).

if a no one plays a hand, ante up again. so 4 players at .25, and no players, now jumps the pot to 2.00 if no one plays.

always keep count of Aces and Kings. if you know 3 aces have been played during that round and you're near the end of the deck, you'll probably win with any Ace high, barring a pair coming out.

fast and loose game, generated some oohs and ahhs. the slowest moving people in the world will pull back that hand at "3" faster than you've ever seen them move.

Way more strategy involved in follow suit

I agree with this

Bourre and Cadilac.

Pedro. Sometimes we play a tournament, and some people get all rawled up! if you played Pedro you know what I mean

See I play Pedro both ways. More often cut throat, but I'll be playing follow suit Christmas night.
