Hockey

Hockey is another fun game that takes some a little time to learn as well as a little luck to play. It is a four player game. All you need for this game is a table to play on, a full deck of cards, and plenty of beer to drink. This is a game where its important to make sure the teams are fair before start so the two people who haven’t played before are on the same team.
How to play: The game is set up like hockey. There are three periods and the person who scores the most goals at the end of the game wins. After each period the score is tallied up, and whoever loses must drink the number of seconds they lost by.
You start by having the partners sit across from each other. Partners cannot talk to each other about their hand, nor hint in any way of what they have. All the cards are dealt out. A person scores by playing the same card as their opponent did right in front of them. For example if player 1 throws a King, player 2 throws a 7, player 3 throws a Queen, and player 4 throws a Queen. Player 4 would score that round for player 2 and 4. Its important to remember each card that has been played to learn what cards are safe for you to throw. There are two safe cards, Jacks and eights. Players cannot score on the safe cards so they are good to have in your hand. It is a challenging game to learn right away, but it is a fun game to play when you have a couple of friends around wanting to drink. Its unlike most other drinking games where you actually have to pay close attention throughout the whole game.
