As soon as you see the poker cards, a poker
game comes to mind, forming hands and thinking of strategies for each street.
But there are more games besides poker that can be enjoyed with those
same cards and that are perfect if you are looking for something fun, but with
a smaller mental component.
We are not saying that there is no strategic
component to these games, but let's face it: poker can be exhausting,
especially when you are not yet good enough to have the main variables under
control.
This is a classic card game. Poker cards can
also be played, keeping its basic concept suitable for all audiences, with a very
simple premise that is the trigger for everything that happens in the game.
Recommended for five or six players, the
objective is the same for everyone: to run out of cards. Beware, here what
matters more than luck is memory. In each player's turn, he says what he has in
his hand, which can be true or false. The cards are placed in the center
(decks) and the next player has to judge whether he is telling the truth or
not.
If he believes him, he must raise and can pass
the turn. If he does not believe him, he has to raise the cards. If the
player who made the judgment has lied, he keeps everything on the table.
But if it was true, the player who raised the cards keeps them.
Playing with the joker gives a cushion of
security and is an interesting way to encourage lying to give a second
chance to the one who fails.
This is another game that can be played with
poker cards. It can be played by up to a dozen people and you can even
put several decks of cards in it. It is considered by some a cooperative card
poker game, so you have to play as a team.
As many sets of 4 cards of the same index are
chosen as the number of players playing. The objective is to get four cards
with the same index by exchanging them with the players following a
specific scheme: each player places one of the cards he has face down, counts
to three, each player gives his card to the player on his right.
The mechanics is repeated until one player
finishes and gets the four cards with the same index. When that happens, he
must put his hand in the center of the table and shout "donkey!".
At that instant, all players must place their hand on top of the winner's hand.
The last one to do so loses.
As with almost all poker card games played
with friends, there are versions to suit all tastes. In some areas it is
even played with several rounds where winners and losers are designated.
You probably know these games because you have
played them since childhood with different cards or with simpler rules. You
should know that each of the card games played with poker decks also admit
variants and concessions to continue playing the same way as always,
perfect if you don't want to relearn how to play a classic game!
This game is ideal to play with poker cards.
Its mechanics are very simple: it's all about lying and knowing how to defend
your lie. There are two roles: the defender and the liar. The players
here draw the same number of cards as the number of players taking part (if
there are six of you, each player draws six cards).
If there are six of you, you draw three black
cards and three red cards. If there are seven of you, five red and two black or
vice versa. Move them and deal one to each player. Here there is a narrator who
will be one of the players, but the narrator only participates when there
are two or three reds in the game. Otherwise, no.
The narrator acts as a mediator because the
game is based on accusations, hence the importance of defense. The reds have
the objective of lying and not being discovered, while the objective of
the blacks is precisely to discover the liars, the reds.
A mythical game that does not require more
players to be enjoyed. Although it is a game that does not enhance the social
character of the rest, it is a great way to train in the handling of cards
and to learn the scale and hierarchy of cards.
The premise is simple: collect the cards in
their respective suits in order. The cards of the deck are used to place them
in descending order, and the cards of the column in which we are playing must
remain covered until we manage to reposition those cards in a different
column to unify the hierarchy. Only then can we uncover it and see if we
can use it to continue the same or another ladder.
To move the cards, it is not necessary
that the straight is complete, but the cards must be placed in order. The four
aces are placed separately and are used to place the final decks, which also
allows us to discover more cards of the final columns, the ones with more cards
covered.
It is one of the poker card games that has less
strategic component, but it is equally enjoyable at times when it is
impossible to gather a team to form a game.
