Device and assembly for flipping cards and method of use

An assembly comprising:

• a device for flipping stacked cards from a first position to an opposite second position, the device comprising a flexible hollow cup-shaped member having a base portion defining a rim, and at least one recess or aperture;
• characterized in that:
• the at least one recess or aperture is formed in or proximate a portion of the rim so that when the base portion is placed on a generally flat surface, there is formed at least one opening that allows air to pass through when pressure is applied to an outer surface of the cup-shaped member, and to direct a blast of air toward a base of a stack of cards disposed on said surface proximate the at least one opening, and thereby flip the cards from the first position to the second position;
• and
• a plunger element that is configured to push air out through the recess and/or apertures of the device.

A method for using a device to play a game for flipping cards, the method comprising:

• (a) providing a device for flipping stacked cards from a first position to an opposite second position, the device comprising a flexible hollow cup-shaped member having a base portion defining a rim, and at least one recess or aperture;
• characterized in that:
• the at least one recess or aperture is formed in or proximate a portion of the rim so that when the base portion is placed on a generally flat surface, there is formed at least one opening that allows air to pass through when pressure is applied to an outer surface of the cup-shaped member, and to direct a blast of air toward a base of a stack of cards disposed on said surface proximate the at least one opening, and thereby flip the cards from the first position to the second position;
• (b) placing a stack of cards on a surface;
• (c) disposing the device in close proximity to the stack of cards with the recess and/or apertures facing the cards;
• and
• (d) exerting pressure on an outer surface of the device so as to direct a blast of air toward a base of the stack of cards and thereby flip cards from a first position to an opposite second position;
• whereby a player wins by flipping more cards than any other player.

• (c) disposing the assembly in close proximity to the stack of cards with the plunger element uppermost and the recess and/or apertures facing the cards;
• and
• (d) exerting pressure on an outer surface of the plunger element so as to direct a blast of air toward a base of the stack of cards and thereby flip cards from a first position to an opposite second position;
