THE RULES OF THE GAME (CARDINLARKS THAT IS!!!!!)

CARDINLARKS:
A simple card game of skill and cunning.
THE RULES:
Start the game by dealing 7 cards to each player.  Flip over the top card of the rest of the deck.  Have a thumbwar tournament and the winner goes first.  You start by playing either a card of the same suit as the up-card or of the same value.  If you can't, draw cards from the deck until you can play. Take turns playing cards in a clockwise manner, until someone is out of cards.  When someone plays his last card, he/she must slam it on the pile, while yelling "CARDINLARKS!!!!," and thereafter are declared the winner.
SPECIAL RULES:
A cardinlark is when you have four of a kind or three aces, you can play them all at once and once again you must yell "CARDINLARkS!!!"  An anti-cardinlark is when you show your hand.  You are then frowned upon.
NOTE:
For best cardinlark experience crooked cards are recommended.
