If you can hold out on drinking until the end of the game... then this is the drinking game for you! Play this quick game and then do a waterfall in the end, just don't get stuck at the bottom.

Quick drinking game, good way to get warmed up for the night.

1. Deal out 4 cards to each player.
2. Player to the left of the dealer starts.
3. Object of the game is to be the last player to put the total 99.
4. There are 4 “safe” cards:
a. King = 0 points
b. 10 = subtract 10 from the total
c. 9 = automatic 99 total
d. 4 = reverse order of play
5. The remaining cards add up to the total face value. Aces are 1 point, Jacks and Queens are 10 points.
6. The first player lays down a card and says the point value.
7. The second player lays down the second card, and says the new total value.
8. Continue to play until the total reaches 99. The next player to play a card that boost the total value over 99 is out.
9. You keep laying until there is only one person left.
10. Now the drinking comes in! The last person to go out starts a waterfall, going in order of being out of the game.

This drinking game can take some time to get used to, but once you catch on, is quite fun!
