<P> To begin , each player flips over the top card from their remaining pile in the center to start the two active piles . Each player plays their face - up cards in front of them placing them on either center pile in ascending or descending order . Once either player has played all cards in front of them , each center pile is open to ' slap ' for the player who has finished their cards . When one player has extra cards , other than the one they are playing with , the opponent takes the bottom card and puts it in place of where the players pile would be . This card is called the mystery card . If one by the player with no more cards , the opponent is not eligible to see the mystery card . The player then plays like they would normally until they or the opponent has no cards remaining . The mystery card must be played at least once a game . </P>
