3. Rules for Beat My Match
• Game played with partner, four in a pod
• All 52 cards are dealt out to entire pod
• Each game has 14 rounds (one for each card in
players’ hands)
• Players will all put down one card at the same time
• Once all cards are down in a round, each team will
subtract the low card from the high card
• The highest difference wins the round
•
Example:
• Team 1 plays a 10 and a 4, they have 6
• Team 2 plays a 5 and a 2, they have 3
• Who wins?
4. Rules for Beat My Match
• All Face Cards and Aces are equal to 10
5. The Catch
• Teammates cannot communicate in any way
• Teammates must put down a card of the same
color to be eligible
• Hearts and Diamonds together
• Spades and Clubs together
• Winning team takes all of the cards played in
that round and wins a point for each
14. New Rules
• Team 1 can communicate silently
• Team 2 cannot look at each other
15. New Rules
• Team 1 may discuss strategy and the play for
each round
• Team 2 will automatically forfeit a round if
caught communicating
16. Reflect.
•How did you act when the rules changed in
your favor? What was the change from
beginning to end?
•What did you notice in your opponents’
behavior? How did they act/react from start
to finish?
17. Discuss.

What is self-awareness?
How does Covey define it?
What is determinism?
How do we tend to use it?
Who is Victor Frankl? What was his
predicament, and how did he respond?
• Why is he proof that conditioning can be
overcome?
