If you're looking to set up some form of party night where the agenda is to get all players stripped down to their underwear, chances are the first thing you'll be thinking of is how to play strip poker games where playing the cards well will keep you clothed, and playing poorly may mean getting semi-naked. Or even down to nothing!
Strip poker is not the only option though, and there are a number of other stripping gambling games where you can adapt the rules and gameplay to create an adult party atmosphere.
These games can either involve a number of players playing live or be played on apps similar to the strip poker apps you'll find on Google Play or in the Apple Store.
So you might be thinking 'how can I adapt the games that you'd normally play for real money in an online casino, to bring in a stripping aspect into the gameplay? ' With a little thought and some planning we'll see that actually it's not that difficult to achieve, and in reality, there are some good options that can be set up and played easily.
There probably won't be any surprises here. All of these forms of gambling are well known in their own right, although what may be surprising is how you can bring stripping into play and get a good night's entertainment in the process.
This is a great game for an adult party. Bingo is of course played with each participant having a numbered card, and numbers get called out one by one. If a player has that number on their card they cross it off.
So for strip bingo, you could decide that all numbers in a line crossed off by any player mean that all other players have to remove one item. For a full house, it might mean all others have to remove two items.
This would certainly help ramp up the anticipation as the numbers are called out, and is probably one of the simplest forms of gambling stripping games you'll find.
Blackjack is of course a card game, and you can turn any card game into a stripping game. You just need to establish the rules for how many - and when - clothes can be removed. This is usually when a player wins a round, or is able to win a hand. It is important to make clothing removal fair for all involved.
You can make it more difficult for one or two players to win a particular game if they are very skilled at it, though many card games are based on luck, provided each player understands the rules and gameplay.
You may know of blackjack under its alternative name of 21. It's a fairly straightforward game where one player is the dealer, and other players play in hands against that dealer. Each player gets two cards and is able to stick with what they have or take other cards from the top of the deck, in an attempt to get as close to 21 as possible without going over and 'busting'. If you get exactly 21 on your first two cards then - unless the dealer does the same - you'll win against the dealer's hand. The dealer always goes last and normally has an in-built advantage in the game.
So how can stripping rules be introduced into this gameplay?
Well, clearly since the dealer always has an advantage, you'll want all players to take equal turns in that position. So let's take a look at how a 4 player game might work.
Determine how the hands equate to clothing. For example, a blackjack (colored card and an ace) might be worth 4 clothing items, a 5 card trick (5 cards equalling under 21) could be 3 items, 21 total in any form could be 2 items, and any other hand beating the dealers worth one item.
The dealer deals the 2 cards to each player, and the hand is played out. Any player that busts have to remove one item. If the dealer busts, they must remove one item. All other hands are settled as previously agreed, so if a player has a blackjack (and the dealer doesn't) then the dealer has to remove 4 items. But if they won the hands against the other players then their liability would be decreased.
You can see here that the dealer could be at a disadvantage, but remember this is somewhat canceled out by their natural advantage in the game. This form of strip blackjack could lead to some fast games where the dealer, in particular, could get stripped down fairly quickly, so it may be one where you'll need to try out different forms of betting to get the most entertainment from the game, and avoid one player getting naked a lot quicker than the others.
If you do decide that playing strip blackjack will make your night into one to remember, you should bear in mind it's one of the more complex gambling games to adapt into stripping-based gameplay. You may well have to adapt some of these suggested rules as you go to keep it all fair and avoid some of the issues that can come up when a game gets out of hand.
For a gambling game with just two people, Strip War is a good choice. This can be a very raunchy game so it's best to play with someone you feel very comfortable with.
Count the number of clothes you are wearing. You will need to work it out so that you have equal pieces to lose. It is also important to decide which pieces of clothing you are allowed to keep. It's not a good idea to remove jewelry and socks while taking off your shirt and pants.
Determinee the hierarchy of the cards. The best way to play is with a standard order where Ace is highest and two is lowest. Each player gets one card each from the deck, the highest wins, the lowest loses, and removes a garment.
It's simple stuff, but highly effective especially if you both have an ultimate goal in mind. And there are plenty of extra rules or forfeits you could add-in for some extra interest.
Numerous other games, besides poker and the others we've mentioned, can have "strip" versions.
In particular, many "strip mahjong" video games have been published, especially by Japanese software companies.
It may be surprising to learn that even strip sports betting was tried out in the past. It was first introduced in the United States in 2013, involving live internet broadcasts where female models and pornstars could wager on football games, and then have to remove clothes if they lost the bets.
Besides these examples, there is one that is not normally associated with gambling but can be adapted so that wagers form part of the fun. That example is in the well-known trivia game Trivial Pursuit.
In strip Trivia Pursuit there's a very simple twist on the game that can be employed, and that's for anyone who answers a question incorrectly to lose a piece of clothing, while anyone getting one right gets to put something back on or force everyone else to remove something. With a few drinks and a carefully set environment, you can see how this version could contribute to a fun-filled evening.
These are just a few examples where gambling-related gaming can be adapted from betting to win money to betting to stay clothed. There are plenty of others that could also be adapted to head in the same direction. All it takes is a little thought, some discussion and agreement on rules and wagers, and a well-organized environment in which to play.
Of course, strip poker will always be the king of the pile. If you don't want to play in a multiplayer environment, there are options for single players to get entertainment with stripping game apps or video games. But trying something other than poker might help lower any inhibitions of some players, and even convince some to give it a go who might have balked at getting involved in a poker game.
Playing poker always makes for a great time, especially if you're winning the pot. But if you're out for a twist with adult friends who are, well, close friends, play a game of poker where clothes become the currency: strip poker. Whether it's winter or summer, pile on the garments—the more you have, the more it's like starting a regular poker game with hundreds of chips.11
