Card entitled flinch game

Cards are separated into groups of five and stacked perpendicular to each other, in a crisscross manner. When play begins, the Reserve piles are created, as each player must place one card in front of their Stockpile. As cards grow, more Reserve piles are made. Players may only have up to five Reserve piles.

Choose a player to be the dealer and have them shuffle the cards. They will then deal the cards as described above forming the necessary piles.

If they have a 1 card that is showing on their Stockpile, they play it to the middle of the table. This will become the first Play pile. Flip the next card in the Stockpile, if it is also a 1 card, play it to the middle as well. When the card on the Stockpile is no longer a 1, players are to look in their hand for a 1 card.

If the player has a 2 card, they may play that on top of the 1 card, but play must continue in numerical order. If there are no cards that are playable, continuing numerical order, the player should play a card into their Reserve pile, saving it for a later time in the game. Players may play from their Reserve piles, but only when the card is on top of the pile. They are unable to sort through their piles. Play piles go from 1 to 15, at which point they are removed from the table.

These cards may be shuffled and dealt again to continue the game. This continues until the player is unable to discard any more cards. The next player does the same. Challenging "Flinch! If they fail to do so, any opponent may call "Flinch! If you are correct, the player challenged is penalized as above; if not, the challenger draws the penalty.

If two players issue a challenge at the same time, the challenger nearest to the left of the challenged player receives the credit or penalty for the challenge. Menu Menu. Chess Go Poker Contract bridge.
