Up River Down River (Simple Version)

A quick easy card game

Up River Down River is a very easy card game.

The dealer acts as a player, and so should not be able to see the undealt cards.

Each player is dealt four cards face up in front of them.

Two rows of four cards each are placed face down on the table surface.

The first row are the "up river" cards, the second row are the "down river" cards.

Play begins by flipping the first up-river card over, any player who has that card in front of the may distribute two drinks.

The next up-river card is turned, this time a match is worth 4. The third card is worth 6, the last is worth 8.

Then play proceeds back down the river, except now a match causes a person to take the drinks, first 8, then 6, then 4, then two.

If a person has two of a card, then they are each counted separately (example: a person who has 2 Jacks, and a Jack is turned up in thhe second card going up-river, may give out 8, instead of 4 drinks.)

A longer, more complicated version of the game, sometimes called "Up River Without A Paddle" is available here
