Pit, the fast-paced card game from Parker Brothers, has been a bullish performer since its introduction way back in 1904. With all the ups and downs, desperate deals, and nonstop action of an actual trading floor, this lively game offers great fun without risking the family fortune. The rules are simple: Deal the cards, wait for the opening bell, scream and trade like crazy, be the first to corner a specific market (nine cards of the same suit), and ring the closing bell. Sounds pretty realistic, doesn't it? Once you've got the basic game mastered, try throwing Bull and Bear cards into the mix--that's when things get really interesting!Pit comes neatly boxed with a set of durable game cards, instructions, and a heavy-duty metal bell that's great for slamming. There are rules included for a silent bidding version of the game, but jumping up and down, gesticulating wildly, and shouting yourself hoarse is half the fun Review: Great game lots of family fun. Review: PIT is a card game based on the trading of commodities. This sounds dry when you first hear it, but actually this is one of the most enjoyable party games ever invented. It's simple to learn, fast to play, and involves lots of screaming and yelling. (Try to imagine "Go Fish" if nobody takes turns and it was played like a furious farmer's auction). But the game also has a fascinating history and teaches something about the nature of the economy. The commodities market developed in the 19th century as the modern agricultural economy began to grow in the U.S. When many farmers faced bankruptcy during lean times of the winter season, "forward contracts" -- an agreement between a buyer and a seller on a price, quantity, and a future delivery date of a particular commodity like wheat or beans or coffee -- started to appear. Between the time of the contract purchase and the delivery, the price of the commodity could change rapidly and violently in either direction, so to protect themselves, merchants would travel to Chicago to trade their various contracts and agree on a later delivery date. The location where they traded (originally a room above a flour store) became The Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) -- also know as "THE PIT." Today we see the The Pit on television every day, where traders dash about desperately yelling and giving signals to buy or trade contracts on wheat, soybeans, Eurodollars, heating oil, gold, and so forth. (Actually, I work in a commodities brokerage firm and live this madness every day.) And thus arose this long-lived, legendary card game. By 1904, when the game was first published, the commodities market had exploded into a major economic force in the country, and one in which speculators could lose or gains millions in a short period of time. This game is meant to imitate the frenzy of traders on the floor of the pit, selling and buying contracts on various commodities rapidly so they can "corner" a particular market, and where fortunes can be made or lost in seconds. This may sound a bit complicated, but PIT is an incredibly simple game to learn and addictive to play. Seven-year-olds can pick it up quickly and be trading as hard as an adult player after only one round. The play is simple. A deck of eight different "suits" of nine cards each (commodities like wheat, oats, coffee, and sugar), plus a "bear" card and "bull" card, are dealt to the players. The dealer then rings a bell (included in this set) to declare trading open. Immediately, without any semblance of taking turns or order, the players try to discard cards they don't want by trading them with other players so they can get all nine cards of one commodity in their hand and "corner" that market and win the round. You receive a particular number of points depending on what commodity you've nabbed (wheat, for example, is the most valuable at 100 points). All trading is blind: a player holds up cards of all the same suit he wishes to trade, keeping their backs to the other players, and yells out how many he wants to trade ("I'm selling three! Three! Who wants three!). Other player may ask him to trade less if he they have fewer cards available to offer ("Will you drop to two!? I'll trade two!"). Usually, three or four trades among different players are going on at any time, or players are competing to grab an offered trade first, and the game becomes a furious race to nab that nine-of-a-kind and slam your hand on the bell to announce that you've won the round. Amongst all this looms the Bear and Bull cards. The Bull is a wild card; you can corner a market with only eight cards plus the Bull. But if the Bull is in your hand when someone else slams the bell, you lose twenty points. The Bear is always bad: you lose twenty points if it's in your hand at the end of the round, and as long as it's in your hand, you can't corner a market. You keep playing rounds until someone gets 500 points and wins the game. New players may be a bit hesitant with the fast and furious play style, but pretty quickly everyone will be feeling like a real tradier and yelling and wheeling and dealing. I've seen ten-year-olds beat out fifty-year-olds with their enthusiasm. And no one will ever get bored playing this. (Neighbors, however, may complain about the noise.) The only real drawback to PIT is that it isn't as fun with a small group. The more players you have, the more fun it is. A three-player game is possible, but it isn't as intense as a game of five or more. And eight players (the maximum) is an absolutely amazing thing to see or take part in. Buy this game...you'll be the hit of your next party. It has all the wheeling and dealing of Monopoly in one tenth the time! ## Features - Contains: 74 Premium Quality Cards, Silver Toned Bell And Rules - Fast-Paced And Fun - Great For Group Play - Country Of Origin : United States ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00000DMBD | | Best Sellers Rank | #53,559 in Toys ( See Top 100 in Toys ) #879 in Dedicated Deck Card Games | | Customer reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (7,074) | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | 1019 | | Product Dimensions | 12.19 x 6.86 x 16 cm; 294.84 g | ## Images ![The Pit Game - Deluxe - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81+DlVO4EfL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Pattern** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: After one deals the 9 cards to the players and trading begins, when do you use the remaining deck of cards to draw from?** A: You pick crops depending on how many players there are. Say there's 5 players. You pick 5 crops and get all 9 cards of each crop. So there should be 45 cards in play plus the bear and the bull. So 47. The rest of the cards are never used. There's 5 crops for 5 people to collect. **Q: Can cards, are they in color OR not.???? Did you have plastic ou box container for the card ???** A: The cards are NOT in color. They are greyscale. I was disappointed by this. The box is cardboard. **Q: What is the difference between Deluxe pit, classic pit, and the pit card game?** A: I know of three versions: The Pit Card game, the Orange Game and the Deluxe Pit. The Pit Card game replaces the bell by a Pit Corner card and the winner must touch it. The cards are stiff and poor quality, but they are colored. The Orange Game used the Orange plastic bell and the bell has a built in case to store and transport the cards. The cards are more flexible and better quality than the Pit Card game, also colored, but more cartoon-ish. The Deluxe Pit includes the typical bell that is also the loudest bell. The commodity cards are all the same color (green pictured commodity). They didn't color the cards to give it a "retro" style. **Q: What is the size of the box? Will it fit into a normal size Christmas stocking?** A: Maybe, if the Christmas stocking is large. I do not know. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***. on 16 April 2026* Great game lots of family fun. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by C***Y on 19 February 2004* PIT is a card game based on the trading of commodities.
