That game was a favorite on Saturday’s nights at my parents when I was a kid. Friends and family all the time. I just remember that it got a bit loud but lots of fun.
The card game Pit was invented by the clairvoyant, Edgar Cayce. Edgar Cayce sent his idea to Parker Brothers, and the toy and game manufacturer started producing and selling Pit in 1904. Because Cayce failed to copyright, Parker Brothers was able to take his idea and not pay him any royalties.
My friends and my hubby and I played “Silent Pit” once, because our friend’s baby was asleep. OMG it was hilarious! The facial expressions and holding up our fingers for the numbers. It was unbelievable!! I peed my pants laughing. I LOVE PIT!!
We play a different way to deal with the extra cards. We have 2 trash cards but they're trash cards which aren't dealt out to anyone, rather than cards added to the pack. So this means 2 commodities might be unwinnable without the bull, or one commodity might not be winnable with at all. A bit meaner than your "extra cards" rule and it can be hard with 4 or fewer players but it adds an extra element to the game when you're thinking, "hmmm maybe I can't complete this hand" and switch to another commodity.

I played this game as a kid with my family and your video reminded me how much fun it was. Thank you!
Great video. We're hosting our first ever game night tonight so this was very helpful!
How was it?
My family would always have 2 face down cards in the middle if u wanted to trade off in the "extra pile"

I used to play that game all the time when I was younger.
I just picked this game up today for 50 cents! Looked like a cool game to play at camp!!!
We played this camping as a kid.I loved it > Thank for the memory
RE the house rule, we just leave the excess cards out of the game ... so there may be one or two commodities which can't be completed.
Ty!! I got this brand new at a thrift store..now im excited to try it!

It's a family favorite. Did you cut those corners? I've never seen a Pit deck like that.
The loud background music makes it impossible for me to hear you. Sorry.
The greatest instructional video
cutting the corners of the cards? damn, that is hardcore!
This is a great game! Nice instructional video!
Im On the Stock market, and Yes, This does relate to a "Bull/Bear" Market. And is one of the symbols of Wall St. And the stock exange,
i have a newer version and the rules doesnt say you cant mix commodities when trading
Thanks for the instructional video, it was very helpful.
I recognize that background music, but I can't remember what game it was from. I think it was a mobile puzzle game.
I think it's just stock music
Great explanation! Thanks
Great video
