Things You'll Need:
- A single deck of cards, no jokers
-
Step 1
2-6 players can play this game with a single deck of cards without the jokers
This game may be played to look for pairs of cards or for four of a kinds. The younger players may enjoy playing for pairs more than looking for sets of four. -
Step 2
Deal seven cards to each player.
Each player looks for any pairs and pulls them out of their hand before play begins. -
Step 3
The play starts with the player to the left of the dealer.
The player looks at his cards and asks any of the other players if they have one of the cards he has in his hand.
If the other player does have the card, then that player must hand all of that card to the one who asked for it.
Once the cards are handed to the player who asked, then that player pulls out the pair or four of a kind and takes another turn. The pairs or sets of four are put aside until they are counted in the end of the game.
If the other player does not have the card requested, then that player says, Go Fish!
The player who did the asking then draws a card from the pile and the play continues with the next player. -
Step 4
Once someone runs out of cards in their hand or all the cards are done in the deck, each player counts up how many pairs they have and the one with the most wins.
