I think the hardest part is when you have two of the same card shared with the other players. You can guarantee a good bet on a character but you are kinda left to just guess what you think could be there. I think my brother would enjoy the game.<br \/><br \/>I would say a leadership example is taking the leap and people following. When a player would bet on a character and people would start voting on different bets around the character. Which can be very funny with bluffing, like my friend kept betting that there was a jester\u2026 There was no Jester. There were a lot of times where people would place bets on something hoping there was a card there, then others would start betting because they thought the other player knew there was that card.<br \/><br \/>In the game we played we tended to lock in one solid bet and try to get other bets that worked. Some players would save all their chips to steal, I tended to drop like 9-11 chips on a really good bet that usually worked out for me. People also decided to play a lot of chips early on, like one game where someone played 18 chips to steal a bet, which I&#8217;m not sure if it even paid out. There were also times I sniped some bets that I knew would succeed while other players didn&#8217;t know. I ended up winning, but it was really close with 2nd place being 1 point behind.<br \/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week I played cursed court, a game of betting and bluffing.
