Past the Dutchie

Wild Cards: Second lowest card in your hand.

Special Rules: After the initial deal and bet, there will be three rounds of passing cards to the player to your left (each followed with a betting round). The first round will be three cards passed, then two, and the last pass will be one card.

Background: Invented by the infamous Dutchman Johan van der Smut, this amusing game was an occasional diversion while creating his giant tractor beam. It proved to be effective in annoying the hell out of his poker buddies as well.
