My favorite game is ‘guts’ for exactly that reason.

[Link: en.wikipedia.org…]

When I was a kid, we played a game called “Loo” at the roping arena where I ran the chutes for team ropers. 25 cent ante. Three cards. Then a trump card was thrown down and you either said ‘in’ or ‘out’ (losing a quarter). If you didn’t win at least one of the three ‘tricks’, you had to match the pot. You needed two tricks to win the pot. With five or six players, pots got big, and fast.
