Karok Other, Toys & Games Shoots used to make 'Indian cards.' A set of little sticks was prepared by scraping ten inch lengths of shoot clean of bark. All the sticks were straight and one was marked with a black mark. The dealer took the set of sticks in his hands, shuffled the sticks, sang and held his hands behind his back. He tried to prevent his opponents from guessing where the black marked stick was. If the dealer kept the other side from guessing where the ace was for ten times, he won. This was a gambling game.
