HOW TO PLAY BLUFF

Deal the cards out evenly, such that each  711cuci player has an equal number of cards. If there are any remaining cards, place them face down in the centre as the beginning of the discard pile.

HOW TO PLAY
The player to the left of the dealer begins by placing a card or cards of the same rank face down on the table. The player must say what the cards are, but does not have to tell the truth. For example, they could say they have "3 fives", and place any 3 cards in the centre. The other players must then follow suit. If they do not have a card of the same rank, they can either play a different card and hope that no one calls their bluff, or they can pass.

Blind Player - The blind players must not look at their cards before betting. To play blind place a bet in the pot. That bet must be equal to but not more than twice the total in the pot. If you are the first player, your bet must be at least equal to the boot.

If a player thinks that another player has played a card that they do not actually have (i.e. they are bluffing), they can call their bluff by saying “Bluff!”. If that player was indeed bluffing, they must take all of the cards on the table as a penalty. If they were not bluffing, the player who called the bluff must take the penalty instead.

The round ends when all the players have passed. The winner is the first person to get rid of all their cards.

STRATEGIES
Be aware of what cards are in your hand. For instance, if you have 2 jacks in your hand and someone else calls 3 jacks, obviously they are bluffing.

If you pick up the discard pile, you might be able to see who has been bluffing. This will give you clues about the approach of different players.
