Cut was a game played between at least two players. It required only a deck of cards, leading the Fourteenth Doctor to declare it "the simplest game of all". The player's aims were simple: upon agreeing the Ace of the deck was the highest valued card, they then cut the deck once each from a point in the deck of their choosing. They then showed one another the value of the card and whoever's card was the highest value, won.
The Fourteenth Doctor played a game of cut against against the Toymaker in Soho, 1925. The Doctor opted to go first and cut at the Eight of Clubs (8♣), the Toymaker cut at the King of Hearts (K♥) therefore he won (TV: The Giggle [+]Loading...["The Giggle (TV story)"]).
