Hands up

 

All cards are shuffled and stacked face down in the middle of the table, all players sit with their hands near their body. The starting player is the referee and uncovers to top card. Now all other players must bring their hands as quickly as possible into the position required by the card. The slowest player receives the card and is the next referee. If the referee cannot make a decision he remains referee and the looser of the next round gets both cards. Same hand positions are not possible, players must hold their arms high or cross them, contrary to the card. The player with the fewest cards at the end wins the game.
