And, maybe again, because that is some strange luck and it must be celebrated. In the last round, the players must guess the suit of the final card they are dealt spades, clubs, hearts, diamonds. If they guess correctly, they have 5 people drink. If they are wrong, they only consume 1 drink. Players may split their 5 drink OR force them all on one player. Then, players take all their cards four cards in hand while the dealer forms a pyramid face-down.

The pyramid has a 5 card base then 4, 3, 2, 1… you know the drill. So that, they top row, for example, is 2 shots while the bottom rows are a drink, a couple drinks, and so on.

This can be determined by all the players before starting the pyramid. Players must guess if their third card will be in between the values of their first two cards or outside. Players who have two identical first cards can claim outside, and will automatically win unless a 3rd identical card is given to them. In the last round, each player has to guess the suit of the card. If their guess is correct, they may give out 5 drinks to the other players. They can assign the drinks to 5 different people or make one person take the 5 drinks.

If a player has a matching card in their hand, they may lay their card down on the pyramid and ask another player to drink based on the row where their card matched.
