Drinking Games

Eat the Turnbuckle 
Submitted by Erin

What You Will Need:

A deck of cards
Dice
Beer

How to Play:

Each numbered card is worth its face value in drinks. Jacks 
are worth 11 and Queens are worth 12. Kings and Aces are 
known as cover cards. 

Deal all of the cards to every player evenly. The players take 
turns rolling the dice. If a 8 is rolled and you have two 8's 
in your hand, you can place them both in front of one player 
or you can split them up between two players. The players who 
have had a card or cards placed in front of them must drink 
that number (Ex: Two 8's equals sixteen drinks). 

If a player has all four of the same card laid in front of them 
they must drink time and a half (four 8's equals 54 drinks). 

The game ends when no one is holding any cards in their hand. 
If a number is rolled twice, then whoever has that number's 
card(s) in front of them must drink the appropriate amount. 

If a player has a King or an Ace, they may use them to cover 
one card in front of them for each King or Ace they have, 
but the player has to always drink the first time a card is 
laid in front of them, even if they cover it right away. 
You cannot move a cover card after it has been laid on a 
card, so be careful in choosing which cards to cover. 

Biting the turnbuckle is when a player has had all four 
Queen's laid in front of them (That's seventy two drinks). 

NOTE - If you have all four of cards of the same number laid 
in front of you, use a cover card to cover one of those 
cards and you will half the number of drinks that you have 
to take every time that number is rolled.
