    Having a hand full of wildcards can be an easy winning position, all you need to do is figure out the color of one card on the opponent’s hand and never pick that color.

      Having a hand with one or zero cards is a winninger position. If i walked into vegas and saw two guys playing Uno i would bet my money on the guy holding one card not six counterfeit cards.

        That’s correct, assuming other guy was smart and saved a wildcard or wild draw 4. Otherwise, the odds are more like 3/4 on the cheater’s favor, unless the non-cheater draws another +4 or a +1/+2 that matches the color the cheater is saying.

        Or the cheater sucks and doesn’t say UNO when he gets to the last card.

        … But what if the guy with the counterfeit cards owns the casino and is also on the verge of bankruptcy, again?
