A Baby Bowser card eliminates the player from the minigame. If a player does not ground-pound a card within 10 seconds, Baby Bowser spawns automatically for the same purpose.

Overview[edit]

Opening

The player has a look at the six Toads, two Boos, and four Baby Bowsers on the cards before changing to question marks before being shuffled around.

In gameplay, players take turns choosing a card by ground-pounding it. If they choose a Baby Bowser card, which also occurs if they do not choose a card within ten seconds, they are removed from the minigame. If a Boo card is selected, the players run off, and their turn order is changed. A Toad card allows the player to proceed to the next round. The winning player is whoever is in the minigame last.

The minigame title is derived from the identically titled phrase, referring to a deck of cards in poker arranged in such a way that one player gets a good hand and wins. {{br|left]}
