Is skip bo like Uno?

There are a few similarities, but they are not very much alike. In Skip-Bo, you are trying to get rid of your cards by counting from one to twelve in order, having four lay-down stacks, instead of one. In Uno, you are trying to get rid of all your cards on one stack by putting down similar cards (same color or number).

How do you play the French-Canadian card game Charlemagne?

I use to play with my french Canadian inlaws, you play with the seven thru the ace and discard the 2 thru the 6. Play with a partner and bid in suits. The trump suit has the highest card as the nine followed by the jack of suit then the opposite jack of suit the ace, king, queen, ten, eight and seven. The off trump suits follow the traditional ace high down. You bid clockwise until no one wants to bid higher than the last bidder. The highest bidders suit becomes the trump suit. Bidder leads off with the first card. You can trump in whenever you are out of the suit that is led or you can discard another suit card. The bidder gets 10 points for every trick he and his partner takes up to their bid and a point for any extra tricks. If the miss making their bid they get set the total amount of their bid times 10. Example, if you bid 6 hearts and only take 5 tricks you get set 60 points. You play to a set point amount like 500 points.

Anyone know of a card game called Kings and Gravel suckers?

The way I learned to play, each person gets 5 cards and the dealer starts a set off by putting down a card. The players each take turns either putting down a card with a higher value than the previous person, or drawing a card. If a person draws a card and is able to play it, they may do so. Twos are the highest value, with everything else having standard face value. Once a person has either played the two, or a card has been played where everyone had to draw a card for a full round, the set is pulled and whoever played the top card restarts the next set. The game continues until there is one person holding cards- and that person is the gravel sucker. Thanks to the guys from Skypark who taught me how to play this at the Seattle Airport.

I play a game called Gravel Sucker (that also features a player nominted as the King) with very different rules. This version was played lots in the Youth Hostel on Berneray, Scotland.

Getting Ready for the Game

  1. Use either 1 or 2 desks of cards.
  2. Take out some of the lowest value cards so that you can deal out all the remaining cards equally between everyone. (eg if there are 5 players, and you have two desks, you will have 104 cards. Take out 4 cards. Then everyone has exactly 20 cards each.
  3. Sit around the table. Use some method to decide who is the King.
  4. Around the table, clockwise, you have King, Queen, Prince, Princess, Lord, Lady etc and finally Gravel Sucker.
  5. Before the game starts the Gravel Sucker has to give their highest card to the King. The King can give any card back to the Gravel Sucker.

The game is now ready to start

  1. The King starts the game
  2. Place down a single card of any value (or a pair of cards of the same value (eg a five and a five), or a tripple of cards of the same value (eg a three, and three and another three).
  3. Note - Best strategy is to get rid of your low cards first.
  4. Going around the table, everyone has to play a higher card (or higher pair of cards, or a higher tripple of cards).
  5. Any player can pass if they want (even if they could have played)
  6. Whoever played the highest card (or highest pair or highest tripple) wins that round and will start the next round.

Example.

King plays a 4. Queen plays a 6. Prince plays a 7. Gravel Sucker passes. King Passes. Queen Passes.

Prince then starts the next round. Prince plays a tripple of a Six, a Six and another Six.

Gravel sucker passes. King Passes. Queen plays a tripple of a Nine, a Nine and another Nine. Going around the table everyone passes. Queen won that round and will start the next round.

Running out of cards

  1. As each player runs out of cards, they win the title of King, then Queen, then Prince etc in turn down to the last person holding some cards which is the new Gravel Sucker.
  2. You all then change seats to be in "rank" order. The King always starts the next game.

What the Gravel Sucker Has to do.

  1. The gravel sucker has to clear up all the cards that were put down in the last round, fetch the drinks, shuffle the cards, deal the cards etc.
  2. The gravel sucker normally sits on the floor or a stool or the most uncomfortable chair there is.

What is best strategy in card game war?

I recommend practicing with face-up decks; this means you don't need card counting to learn the basics.

The main decision is what order to put the cards on the bottom of your deck. If you know the bottom. If your opponent has more cards than you when you win a combat, you choose the matchups for the cards you put on the bottom.

For example, if your decks are

You: A57

J

4

Him: 3K8 2Q9

You can match the Jack against the 2 to avoid losing it.

The 2Q9 sequence in this example is your opponent's 'Tail', the cards on the bottom of his deck that aren't matched on the bottom of yours. This is what you need to memorize or write down in a face-down deck to use strategy.

Greedily winning as much as you can is better than no strategy, but still not great. Once your deck is larger than your opponent's, you have the tail and your opponent gets to drive. It's better to lose a lot so that you keep control.

So the strategy I suggest is to play until your opponent has the tail. Then use your matchup power to win Aces and Kings, by War if necessary, while losing as many other cards as possible. When you have all of one rank, proceed to the next rank down. By the time you lose control, you should have, roughly, the top half of the deck vs. the bottom half of the deck.

On defense, there's not much you can do. Try to spot possible wars while you're building the tail and keep your aces out of the way. Try to clump pairs of the same card to force your opponent into wars they don't want - setting up an unavoiable war and losing it is one of the easiest ways to regain control. Set up pairs of similarly-valued cards as well, since it gives your opponent less options. When you have no idea what else to do, put your lower card first.

This might not be the best possible strategy, but it beats most players the vast majority of the time.

Oh, and if you can't be bothered counting cards, putting your high card in front so it comes up more helps a bit vs. people who play randomly but loses horribly to anyone who knows what they're doing.

How do you play smut card game?

Each player gets 6 cards. The player on the dealer's left plays a card, and each player must follow suit. A player who cannot follow suit must draw until he can. The highest card takes the trick, and that player plays a card to begin the next trick.

Once the deck is depleted, a player who cannot follow suit picks up the cards that have been played and places them in his hand.

The winner is the first person to run out of cards.

Uno can you add a draw2 card to a draw4 card?

You cannot add a draw 2 on top of a draw 4 card. Nothing beats the Draw 4, it automatically takes your turn away. You can put a Draw 4 on top of a Draw 2 but ONLY if you do not have any more of that color card in your hand. You can also risk putting a Draw 4 on top of a color that you do still hold in your hand, but another player can call your bluff (because by using it you are saying you do not have any of that top color in your hand) and you will either have to take the entire discard pile or draw 4 cards depending on how you want to play.
