Flinch is a card game, played with a custom deck, invented in 1905 (according to parker brother website).
To Play: You deal out all the cards to the people and don't look at them. The first player turns over the card and if it is a one it is put in the middle, if it is not a one it is put face up so that everyone can see it. The second player takes their top car and again if it is not a one it is put face up, and so forth for the rest of the players. The first person goes again and if they can put their card on someone else's pile say person one has a 9 and person two has an 8 they can place their 9 on person two's 8, if it cannot be place in the middle.
