Uno is a fun and fun card game. The winner is the first person to finish all the cards in his hand. Even though it's fun, there are players who want to cheat on the game. To make sure you win when playing UNO, learn various game-cheating techniques so you can find out the tricks of other players. Watch the cards you play so you can control the game and be the first to finish all the cards in your hand. Don't forget to shout the word "Uno!" when one card remains in hand!
Step
Method 1 of 6: Setting the Card Arrangement
Step 1. Hold the UNO card as soon as you know you are going to play the game
All these instructions will go to waste if you are caught cheating. Be careful and play this game smoothly
Step 2. Take the pile of UNO cards, then take them to the room
Close the door so no one can see.
Step 3. Place the deck of cards face down and start picking up cards one by one from the top of the deck
Separate the cards into piles that match the number of people who will be playing. Place 5 good cards, as well as 2 numbered cards in the first pile. The other 3 decks of cards must contain 6 numbered cards, with 1 card Skip, Reverse, Wild or Swap Hands. Do not place Draw 2 or Draw 4 cards into any pile.
Step 4. Go to where the game is taking place
Set the table that will be used to play (if not already), then place the card pile in the middle.
Step 5. Check your “good” deck (a deck of 5 action cards) and see if you have a Skip, Reverse, or Draw 2 card
If you have, take the first card from the top of the card pile, if the color does not match, continue to take the card until the color is the same.
If you have all of your Wild, Draw 4, or Swap Hand cards, you don't need to use this step because you can change the color of the card right away
Step 6. Lay down the rest of the cards
While sitting on the chair of your choice, place your deck of cards (containing good cards) in front of the chair. Place another pile of cards in front of each of your friends' seats (you can shuffle them).
Step 7. If anyone is wondering why you're arranging the cards, just say that you want to ease the task [insert name of person in charge of shuffling here] to make it too much of a hassle
Method 2 of 6: Using Diversion Techniques
Step 1. Make a wild gesture while pointing at the back of the room
Turn the players' attention to the back of the room. This way, they won't notice your trick.
- For example, you could point to an insect sitting on a wall.
- In addition, you can scream and point something behind other players.
Step 2. Steal strong cards from other players if you need them
When the players take their eyes off, take a few cards from their deck. Move your hands as fast as lightning so you don't get caught!
Do this trick when you only have numbered cards and need a Wild card or a Skip card
Step 3. Put some cards in the discard pile if you hold too many cards
When another player distracts him, place some of your cards on the "throw away" pile of cards. Do this with quick moves so other players don't notice and catch your cheating.
Don't throw away all the cards in your hand to make it look more realistic. Defend 1-3 cards so that you can discard them on multiple occasions. That way, other players won't notice your cheating
Step 4. Do not do this trick if there is a lot of glass in the game room
If the room where you play UNO has a lot of glass on the walls, reflections on the glass can unmask you. Try other methods to trick your opponent.
For example, some living and dining rooms are equipped with large decorative glass panels
Method 3 of 6: Performing the “Drop Melon” Trick
Step 1. Wave your arms to make yourself look silly or drunk
While playing, convince the other players that you are acting silly. For example, make stupid comments and tease other players. Act a little reckless. After that, when ready, raise both arms to collide with other players.
- You can swing your arm or nudge the drink until it's almost spilled.
- This will make you appear more convincing when nudging other players.
Step 2. Drop the other player's cards along with yours
While swinging your arms, nudge other players so that the cards in their hands fall. While doing so, drop your cards in the same place. That way, the cards will mix and you can swap them.
Do this as naturally as possible so you don't get caught. If you appear to have accidentally dropped another player's card, this method will not work
Step 3. Rearrange the cards that are on the floor without being seen by other players
When you drop their card, say something like “Geez, sorry. Here, I'll get it , then bowed under the table. Take a card and divide it into two piles, 1 for you and 1 for the other players. While doing so, choose the card you want and place it in your deck. Position the cards as quickly as possible.
- You can also immediately pick up the cards that fall, but other players must also pick them up from the bottom.
- Make sure other players don't see you rearranging the cards.
Step 4. Hand cards back to other players, including strong cards
When rearranging cards, insert 1 "good" card, such as a Reverse or Skip card. That way, other players will not be suspicious and consider your gift as a "gift".
Other players may think of changing the deck as a positive for him, but in reality you may be handing him 2-3 extra cards without realizing it
Step 5. Swap cards of the same color so other players don't get suspicious
When exchanging cards, pay attention to the dominant color on other players' cards. For example, if the player has a lot of blue cards, swap his cards for blue ones too.
This way, the player won't notice that you've slipped another card
Method 4 of 6: Try the Hiding Card Strategy
Step 1. Select some unwanted cards to get rid of
To make this technique seem convincing, don't throw away all your cards. Leave 1-3 cards in hand, then discard other cards. Do this trick in the middle of the game so you can stack the cards first.
If you can, keep some strong cards, such as a Wild, Reverse, or Draw 2
Step 2. Slide the card into another object when the other players are not looking at you
One of the easiest options is a soda bottle. Place the bottle across the room, in the direction of the bathroom. When other players are off guard, tuck your cards in a pile into your lap, then place them in your hand. Use the slit in the sleeve of the jacket to hide the card, then ask permission to go to the bathroom. After that, put the card in the soda bottle as you walk to the bathroom.
- This way, you can discard as many cards as you can so that you can be the first to say “UNO”.
- The objects used depend on the objects in the house. For example, you can hide cards in a bathroom cabinet.
- This method requires hand speed.
Step 3. Pretend to be surprised when someone finds the hidden card
If someone finds a card thrown in a bottle, pretend not to know. Say something like “How did the card get in there?”
Alternatively, go to throw away the bottle after you win the game. In this way, the trick cannot be caught
Method 5 of 6: Card Counting
Step 1. Watch every card that is played
Make an imaginary note of each card played. This takes practice, but the more you pay attention to the game, the easier it will be to focus.
- Doing so will give you an advantage over other players.
- By counting cards, you can predict the strategies of other players.
Step 2. Play a different color if a player uses one color repeatedly
When watching the game, if there is 1 player who uses the same color repeatedly, for example green, remove a card that disrupts the strategy. For example, you can get cards with the same number, but different colors.
For example, if 1 player plays a green card with the number 7, play a blue card with the number 7. This will change the color used from green to blue
Step 3. Use the same color as many times as possible if other players keep picking up new cards
For example, if you see that 1 player doesn't have a yellow card, keep removing the yellow card until it runs out. You can do this as long as you have a yellow card in your hand.
This method will make your cards decrease while making your opponent increase his cards continuously
Step 4. Use the Wild card to control the color played
When it's your turn, choose a Wild card to change the color to your liking. If a player uses the same color over and over again, use a Wild card to change the color played. Additionally, if you want to play the same color as long as possible, play Wild cards to change the color as needed.
The Wild card is the strongest card in the UNO game. By utilizing this card, you will easily win
Method 6 of 6: How to Prevent Cheating
Step 1. Read tips for cheating UNO games online (along with other methods in this article) to find out the tricks
Step 2. Appoint a referee to control the game
The umpire can be an adult or a peer who can act fairly and track game strategy accurately. He must use a notebook to write down all the player's movements so that there are no disputes during the game. The presence of a referee is not mandatory, but it is a good idea, especially if there are players who enjoy cheating.
Step 3. Make a collective agreement that the person caught cheating must take all discarded cards
This is clearly very detrimental for players who almost spend their cards, but are caught cheating so that all players do not dare to cheat on the game.
Similarly, you can put forward a rule that people who cheat are automatically considered losers. People who cheat can still play, but cannot win, cannot get “UNO”, or cannot make other players take additional cards. He also had to hand over all the action cards in his hand when caught cheating
Tips
- Clear your mind before playing. Take 5 minutes to take a deep breath and feel relaxed. That way, you can focus on the game.
- In total, there are 108 cards in one UNO pile. The colors used are blue, red, yellow, and green. In addition to 1 zero card, there are two cards with the numbers one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, and nine. There are 2 Draw Two cards, 2 Skip cards, and 2 Reverse cards. One deck of cards also has 4 Wild cards and 4 Wild Draw Four.
Warning
- If you cheat the game, you can lose the trust of your friends or relatives.
- Don't bend your card. Other players can see it and this way can damage the card.
