The center
Three of those cards are not dealt to anyone. They are numbered 1, 2, and 3 so the table can talk about a specific one. Adds the Minion, Tanner and Insomniac for more bluffing. You need at least three players before the host can deal. Read the night order once, then host when the phones are out.
