Winning The Game
When a player collects four of a kind they say nothing. Instead they quietly touch the end of their nose with their index finger and stay in that position. Once a player touches his or her nose, all the other players may do the same, even if they themselves do not have four of a kind.
The last player to touch his or her nose is out. It's fun to see how many players are so busy looking at that cards that they don't even notice what everyone else is doing.
Many people play using the rule that the loser now drops out of the game, and the next deal is played with one fewer player - of course four cards of one rank must be removed from the deck each time a player drops out. When there are only two players left, they are the joint winners.
There are many variations to this game played around the world. One of the more popular is called Spoons. The rules and instructions can be found here.
