Lose Your Shirt (Strip__Naked)

A CARD GAME THAT REQUIRES NO SKILL BUT BEWARE YOU COULD LOSE YOUR SHIRT AND MORE

Historians are unsure of the exact date that this card game was first played around the early 1800 is the most popular estimate. Many countries had different names but the function was always the same:

1. A CARD GAME THAT REQUIRES NO SKILL!!

2. IT IS ALL ABOUT THE LUCK OF THE DRAW OR DEAL.

The objective of the game is to win all cards.

The game was probably invented in Britain and has been known there since at least the 1860s. It appears in Charles Dickens's 1861 novel Great Expectations, as the only card game Pip, the book's protagonist, as a child seems to know how to play.

This popular children's game is also sometimes known as Beggar my Neighbour, Beat Your Neighbour, Out of Doors or Taxes. In Trinidad, Barbados and maybe other Caribbean islands it is known as Suck the Well, and in French it is sometimes called Bataille Corse (Corsican battle). Other names for it are Egyptian War or Egyptian Rat Killer and so on, your success at Lose Your Shirt depends on the luck of the draw; if you get a good smattering of court cards, you will probably win. If someone feels bad because they lost, you may want to remind him of that. But that doesn't mean you can't congratulate him if he wins!

Because the game theoretically can go on for a long time — and is ideal for long car journeys, waiting for planes, or similar situations — you can also agree that the player with the most cards at a certain predefined time is the winner. The pot won from this game is what makes it unique and fun. It is not normally played for money because there is no skill involved.

Children play the game for fun: This game is most popular with the kids. Whereas SNAP requires some skill to be successful with this card game it is based on luck. Kids learn as they play and it will keep them entertained for hours.

Convicts/Prisoners play the game for smokes or other forbidden goods: Nobody knows this game better than those with plenty of time on their hands and people in jail use this game to win much sought after condiments. Smokes and books are high on the most wanted list as wagers.

Military personnel play the game for k-rations: Armed forces play this game when they travel and while they wait to go to war either as an exercise or the real deal. K-rations that are very precious to the front-line fighters are used as wagers in these situations.
