What I did during my summer vacation, Part 1

The girls taught us all how to play a card game called Baloney!

An entire deck of cards is dealt, and play goes around the table starting with player one being ace, player two being two, etc., through king and then back to ace. Each player places from one to four cards face down on the stack and says, for example, “Two aces.”

If no one challenges, play continues to the left. But if another player thinks it’s a lie, that player shouts, “Baloney!”

If the cards are not what the person claimed, the person who played those cards picks up the entire discard pile. If the cards are what the player said, then the challenger picks up the discard pile.

First person to discard his entire hand wins.
