What is "Bluff"?

Bluff is a card game where players aim to get rid of all their cards by playing them face down and trying to deceive others about what cards they are playing. The game is typically played with a standard 52-card deck and can be enjoyed by three or more players. On each turn, a player plays one or more cards face down while declaring them to be of a certain rank, such as "two aces." Other players then have the option to challenge the truth of the claim by calling "bluff." If the player was lying, they must take back the cards, but if they were truthful, the challenger must pick up the pile of cards. The game continues until one player runs out of cards, and that player wins.
