Drinking Games

Seven and a Half

What You Will Need:

A Deck of Cards
Alcohol
People

How to Play:

First take out the 8's, 9's, and 10's from the deck. 
Shuffle the rest of the deck and decide who will be 
the dealer. He deals one card to one player face down 
and one to himself face down. 

The player looks at his card and determines if he 
will get closer to seven and a half than the dealer. 
Each card is worth face value and jacks, queens, and 
kings are worth a half. Aces are worth 1. 

You bet between one and five drinks after the first 
card, then like blackjack you take a hit or stay stay 
under seven and half. If you go over seven and half 
you must show your cards and drink your bet. Beat 
the dealer and he drinks the bet. 

The dealer plays each player one at a time until 
the deck is gone. When finished he passes the deck 
to the person to his left.
