This game might seem confusing at first, but is pretty simple once you get the hang of it.

Someone starts off with a bet of something and the next person has to say "I see your..." and then rephases the previous bet and then raise with a bet that is some how tied into the rephased bet.  It can be an abstract connection or straight forward, but it needs to have some kind of link.  And the things being offered as bets don't have to objects.  They can be people, places, cultures, ideas, etc.

Examples:

I bet a horse.

I see your overly-large, four-legged animal and raise you an Irish Wolfhound.

I see your reference to the Irish and raise you drinking.

I see your booze and raise you Bud Light.

I see your waste of money and raise you knick-knacks.

The first real bet:

I bet a candle.
