Black Widow Card Game Rules

E Sodast Dec 2 2010 luL, 3272

Searching the Internet, I realized that there are shortages regarding the rules of the card game "Black Widow", honestly
they are quite easy and it is a very entertaining game, it is played with English cards, they are the ones with Ace of
Spades, Hearts, Clubs Etc.

Rules:
Plays up to 8 people

First of all, 3 chips of a certain color are given (all the players' chips are yellow, for example) to each participant and
another one of a different color is placed in the center of the table, (that Chip with a single color is called Widow).

1 .-5 cards are dealt to each player starting with the Widow (the Widow is 5 more cards that are dealt to the center of
the table), you should always start dealing with the widow otherwise it is being dealt wrong.
It is called Widow because at the beginning of the game chips are distributed that will be taken as the opportunities that
each player has to win all the money bet, whether 5 or 10 or the amount of money they have decided to bet; You will
pay that amount of money to enter the game and you will receive 3 chips which will be "the opportunities you will have
to win."

2 .- Subsequently and only once, the cards are shuffled and an open card is shown to each player, the lowest card
deals the game (the lowest card is always 2).

3 .- Once it has been decided who will deal the cards, the 5 cards are given to each player and the widow (the 5 cards
in the center), the player to the right of the one who dealt the cards starts.

4 .- The first player to the right of the one who dealt has the advantage of being able to decide if he wants to change
"ALL" his cards or pass, if he changes his cards for those in the center he has to leave the cards he had in his hand in
the center of the table face up and take the other 5 (you have to take the 5 cards in the center or nothing), if the player
decides not to take them "pass" and it is the turn of the player to the right of the one who did not want them and so on
until someone take the cards from the center.

Note: if in the first round of the game no player decides to take the center cards, the game does not open as many
people think, and it is because of the logic that no one took the cards because they have good cards in their deck and
they do not have the need at the beginning to get more, therefore the cards in the center are not opened and each
player must show his cards and the largest combination of cards wins, (the cards are opened to the right of the player
who dealt the cards).

5 .- If a player decides to take "The Widow" (the center cards), the player to the right of the one who took the 5 cards
has the power to only change one card and leave another from his deck face up in the center of the table .
Note: You can always change a card or the 5 in your hand, always leaving the ones you have in your hand face up so
that the other players can continue the game.

6 .- The players will change cards until some participant decides that the game is over, when this happens the player
must say "Toco" or tell his rivals that it is the last round and the last opportunity they have to change their cards, the
Player who decides to "Touch" will not be able to take any card and will follow the next one to the right until the turn
returns to the player who touched.

7 .- The Participant who touched must first show his hand, then the one on the right and so on.

8 .-After carefully observing the cards of all the participants, the losing player (the one with the lowest game) must
leave one of his chips in the center of the table and next to the Widow, and it will be up to the player on the right to
deal. that he distributed at the beginning.

9 .-To start the game you must know that there are wild cards, in the first game there is no wild card, in the second
you start with the Ace, then 2, 3, 4 and so on until you reach the King, after the King it continues again the Ace, 2, 3,
etc. (only in the first game there is no wildcard) it will be played like this until some participant wins and

No other participant has tokens.

10 .- We must remember that there is a token of a different color (Widow) that is in the center, that token is worth the
equivalent of the 3 tokens that were given at the beginning of the game. Example: 3 players are playing, each one has
3 chips and in a hypothetical case one loses his 3 chips quickly, placing the initial bet again and having already left his
three chips in the center, he will pay the agreed amount and take the widow and it will be another opportunity What will
he have to continue in the game (the widow can only be purchased once and can only be purchased by the first player
who loses his 3 tokens first). In order not to confuse us or make it confusing, the widow is a single piece and a single
opportunity to continue in the game. If it is lost once the widow has been obtained, that player is automatically
eliminated. If the Player who lost first decides not to buy "The Widow" no other player will be able to buy it.

11 .- The player who wins will take all the money and start the process from the beginning, that is, from paying the
entry again and receiving his 3 chips and leaving the widow in the center, as well as deciding who will deal the cards.

This is the True Widow's Game, I post it because I saw that there is a lack of information about this very entertaining
game or that the information they give is incomplete or they invented the rules themselves. Obviously with good money
it is always more interesting, even more so if you bet a good ticket.

I hope this Post has been useful to you.

It remains to be said that in these plays the Limerick is missing, which is 5 identical cards, obviously there are not 5
identical cards in the deck, it is achieved with the Wild Card.
