RULES:
The object of this 2-player card game is to be the first player to get rid of all the cards in your hand. Setup. Shuffle a standard deck of playing cards and deal 5 cards to each player forming their hands. Deal 15 cards to each player for a personal draw deck. Place 2 cards in between the players, face-down. Deal 2 face down piles of 5 cards beside the 2 cards.
To begin, both players simultaneously flip one of the face-down cards in the center face up. There are no turns, all play happens simultaneously. You must now discard the cards in your hand, one by one, using only one hand to play, to either of the 2 center piles. The card played must either be one number above or one number below the top card of pile being played to.
Ace is both a high and low card, considered one value above a King as well as one below a 2, so that the cards form a looping sequence. If you have less than 5 cards, you may draw cards from the top of your draw deck, one at a time, and you may not hold more than 5 cards in your hand at a time.
If neither player can play, then both players simultaneously flip a card from the side piles onto the top of the central piles. If these piles become depleted, the central stacks are shuffled individually and are placed face-down as new side piles from which cards can be flipped. You may not flip the side piles if you have a legal play.
The first player to play all the cards in their hand and draw pile yells “Speed”, hits the table, and wins. Play multiple rounds to determine the winner of a best of 3.

I searched up “how to play speed” just because my friends would play it and I didn’t know how to lmao

[@yalibean]

I liked how easy your video was to follow. No fuss, just what we need to know. Thank you

[@avivastudios2311]

This was the awesomest card game I ever played. So simple too.

[@xoantwist]

this is easier than reading wikihow lmao

[@aubreynoronha531]

Looooooove this game. Thanks for the simple explanation!

[@Closer2Zero]

I used to play this as a kid and it was called Slap. Except instead of the game ending when you ran out of your cards, once one player ran out you would slap one of the two piles, aiming for the smaller one. Then you would each take your pile and start again. The game would end when one player ended up with all the cards, and said player would lose

[@cora-sol]

That's a very similar game named Spit, not Speed. You can find a video of how to play in his channel too.

[@shw_6362]

I REMEMBER THIS BUT I FORGOT HOW TO PLAY. IT WAS FUN! :DDDDD

[@tylergaming3622]

This game is fun but unfortunately you can have a huge run and be very far ahead. It’s a math style game. If your opponent doesn’t play cards you will eventually not win until he has equal cards.

[@UniqueLove32]

I used to play this in middle school and couldn't recall the set up or rules. Thank you for this, about to teach my son and destroy him 😂🧡

Could I discard the following example: discard a 4 card, then a 5 card, then a 4 card in just ONE pile? Is this a valid way of playing? Thanks a lot.

Yes 👍🏾

And this is how I lost friends

[@IkishiMaS]

How can I play the joker and the king and the queen and a card write on it J???

[@claracapili1742]

If your side piles are depleted then you reshuffle each and start using those? Won’t there be a different number in each pile, which makes it harder for one person to finish their hand as well as their side pile?

[@deadersurvival4716]

You're only trying to empty your hand.

[@Gioskar1]

what if the outer piles are all used but you can still not play?

[@kylerackley]

The way we always played it, when that happens you put all the played cards together, shuffle them, then place them down as if you're setting up the game. You'll end up with more than 5 in each stack, but that's fine.

[@RoyDiLiberto]

Couldn’t have been more clear

[@razzendahcuben]

Thanks for cutting to the chase.
On another note: get on Stronglifts 5x5, get on a good diet, and get proper sleep. You'll thank me in a couple of years.

[@paphitchayasaksaowapak2367]

What if when you get the same number card facing up don't you shout out something then the loser has to get the two piles add up on their own pile

[@shelbyblystone8706]

Can you put the same card down twice, like 3 aces in a row???

[@pumpkinhead540]

Depends on who you're playing with. Some allow doubles, triples, etc while others dont

[@victormurcia5845]

no, and the person above me is wrong

[@djsiddiki3430]

[@scruffulon]

I'm a tad disappointed that you didn't explain this one faster than the others, but it's understandable considering the point of the video.

[@chaitea5026]

If I can put a 2 after a ace ,does that mean I can put a ace after a 2, to act as a 1?

[@LoveKirbythecutepinkball]

No, ace is 1 so a 2 must be played after 1

[@ghadinasrallah6256]

Can it be the same card

No

I have a question. What if both the players have the same cards that they are about to put down and they slap it down literally at the same time?? What do we do then. And we do not know who put it down first. I hope that makes sense
