California Games II

Reading people

Spotting the habit before the move. Spend a whole round just watching your opponent. Do not try to win it. Name their habit.

Teamwork

Two players, one plan. Play co-op and call out one thing every minute: 'I've got left', 'take it'. Talk more than feels natural.

Judging risk

When to push, when to bank it. Play one session all-in: every risk, every shortcut. Then one session all-safe. Compare scores.
