Best Drinking Card Games For Two Or More Players

By Kelly Nigel


On occasion, you might find yourself hosting a party and in need of entertainment options. Party games are the go-to solution for infusing some fun into the atmosphere. A little alcohol with these games never hurts either. Luckily, drinking card games combine both of these ideas into an even better one. Countless 2 player drinking card games are available, depending upon your preferences. Tons of games are available that can include dozens of players, too. Either way, you'll need to consider what your specific party needs for success.

Consider some of the following card drinking games:

Let's start off with drown the clown because it's one of the easiest and enjoyable card games that will transform your party within a few fun-filled minutes. We've put this game first because it's a great place to start and it will help to get the ball rolling. The games begins with everyone receiving a face down card. When everyone is ready, all players will flip their cards. Any two players who have the same card, such as two tens or two fives, will have to drink a shot. Depending on how many players there are, there may be instances where more than two players will have the same card and in this case all players who have matching cards will drink. Once everyone has finished taking their shot, you will go on to round two.

Basically each player is dealt a card and the first person to receive a king picks a drink of their choice. The second player to turn up a king then selects the mixer to go into that drink. The third player receiving a king then either makes or buys the drink (depending on your location), before the fourth person has to drink it. In some cases the same person can end up having to do all 4 if they are unlucky enough to be dealt all for kings.

Drink The Difference

The dealer will give a card to himself as well as the other player, and the player (not the dealer) will have to drink the difference of the two cards. So, if the dealer's card was a five and the player's card was a ten, then the player would have to drink five drinks. If both the player and the dealer receive the same card, both need to take a drink.

Queens

The game of Queens accommodates larger groups of players. Each person will get their chance to enjoy themselves here. To start the game, the dealer turns each card from a deck over one by one. An ace allows the dealer to choose someone to take a drink. Queens means the ladies drink, and Jacks move on over to the men. For a king, everybody is required to take a drink. If a card with a number is flipped, then the dealer picks an amount for one player to drink. He or she can also choose a number of people in the entire group to down a shot.

Each card will require a player to take a certain amount of drinks, the cards and what they represent are:

It is over once you have got to the other end of the "L" or you go through the whole pack, in which case you probably need to go for a lie down!

High Low

So, the next time you're stuck in a rut because your party is boring, try some drinking card games for two or even for a larger group, to liven it up in a snap.
