Camerun Skat is played with 3 players and 32 cards. Each player receives three cards, one player is also the banker. The three cards are placed face up in front of each player.

The banker begins to reveal the cards in the pile one after the other. If a player has a card with the same card value as a face-up card, he pays a previously agreed amount to the bank. If he has to pay a second time, he pays twice the amount, and three times the amount the third time. As soon as a triple value has been paid, the game is reversed and the banker must now pay the stake once, twice, three times and then four times. After four times the amount, the game reverses again and the players must pay. The round ends when all the cards have been turned over.
