How to Play BS (the Card Game)
BS or Bullshit is a popular card game that is best played with a group of four or more players. The goal of the game is to be the last person to get rid of all of their cards.
Object of the Game
The object of the game is to get rid of the cards in your hand. The last person to get rid of all their cards is the winner.
Setting Up and Dealing
To start the game, begin by dealing an even number of cards to each player. Players can choose to start with 7, 10, or 13 cards, depending on how fast they want the game to go.
The Play
The player left of the dealer starts the game. On the first turn, that player can play any single card they want. The next player must either play a card with the same rank(for example, if a 4 is played, they must play another 4) or a higher rank. If they have none of those cards, they must pick up all of the cards from the pile and add them to their hand.
The Bullshit
The most exciting part of BS happens when a player calls Bullshit on their turn. They can “call out” the previous player if they think that the player is bluffing about having the card. If the previous player does indeed have the card in their hand, the “caller” must take all the cards from the pile. If the previous player is bluffing, they must take all the cards from the pile.
Ending the Game
The game ends when a player gets rid of all their cards. The last person with cards still in their hand is the loser.
Tips for Winning at BS
- Pay close attention to the cards that have already been played. This will help you guess correctly if someone is bluffing.
- If you have multiple cards of the same rank, you can play them all at once. This helps you get rid of more cards at once.
- If you think someone is bluffing, don’t be afraid to call bullshit. It can help you win the game.
That’s all there is to it! BS is a great game to play with friends, and with a bit of luck and skill you can win the game!
