Cards in the hat, or card flip, [1] is a card throwing game in which the players throw playing cards into a hat or other receptacle. [2] The game requires concentration and some skill.
Gameplay
A hat or shoe box is placed on the floor, and a mark is determined from where each player will throw, known as the " oche".
The first player steps up to the oche with five cards and attempts to throw them, one at a time, into the hat. Each card landing in the hat gains one point for the player. [1]
In another version of the game, each player plays with the entire pack of 52 cards. [2]
