DreidelEach player begins with an equal number of game pieces (usually 10-15). The game pieces can be any small object, such as pennies, raisins, or chocolate coins.
* At the beginning of each round, every participant puts one game piece into the center "pot". In addition, every time the pot is empty or has one game piece left, every player puts one in the pot.
* Each player spins the dreidel once during their turn. Depending on which side is facing up when it stops spinning, they give or take game pieces from the pot:
o a) If nun is facing up, the player does nothing.
o b) If gimmel is facing up, the player gets everything in the pot.
o c) If hey is facing up, the player gets half of the pieces in the pot. (If there is an odd number, they get half of the total plus one)
o d) If shin (or peh) is facing up, the player adds a game piece to the pot.
* If the player is out of pieces, they are either "out" or may ask another player for a "loan".
* When one person has won everything, that round of the game is over.
