The article was created in 2008 with the comment "this is a card game I played in school." In other words it was WP:OR. The article has been tagged since then as having no citations. I cannot find this in my extensive library of card game books nor is it listed by McLeod at pagat.com or by Parlett in The Penguin Book of Card Games, a tome of over 500 card games played worldwide. The only source listed appears to be an online blog. Unless we can find at least one reliable source, it's time for this to go. Bermicourt ( talk) 16:23, 25 December 2020 (UTC)

- Delete - Can't find any mentions, let alone in-depth coverage to show this even exists. Seems to be WP:OR. Onel5969 TT me 00:47, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

- Delete. Point of correction, the one source is Everything2. I don't consider them all that reliable, though they are fascinating. Quick Google search turns up a lot of pages that scrape Wikipedia and some mentions here and again. --

- Comment. The one source is an exact copy of the section in the Wiki article for the 3-player game. So either Wikipedia has plagiarised the source or it's a circular reference. Either way, it is not a reliable source since, like Wikipedia, it's made up of user-supplied material. Sometimes that's sourced, sometimes not. This one is not.
