How Many Cards Per Player in Cheat (Bullshit / I Doubt It)

Deal the entire 52-card deck as evenly as possible. Exact counts:

PlayersCards EachRemainder
2260
3171 (set aside/kitty)
4130
5102 (kitty)
684 (kitty)
773 (kitty)
864 (kitty)

Notes

  • Remainder cards form a face-down "kitty" – winner of first round takes it, or ignore.
  • Some groups prefer multiple decks for 6+ players to increase hand size and game length.
  • Goal: distribute as evenly as possible so no player starts with a huge advantage.
