HOW TO PLAY
1

Deal the entire deck evenly among all players, face down in individual piles.

2

Each player takes turns flipping the top card of their pile into a shared central pile.

3

The instant a Jack appears on top of the central pile, all players race to slap it first.

4

The player who slaps the Jack first collects the entire central pile and adds it to the bottom of their own pile.

5

A player who slaps a non-Jack card by mistake must give one card to the player whose card was on top; the game continues until one player collects every card.
