	Games - Chance card

There are sixteen Chance cards in the standard US edition of the game Monopoly.

Chance cards in the standard US edition of the game are dark orange in color, and printed on only one side in black, unraised ink. The use of upper- and lower-case type and punctuation is inconsistent. The "advance token to the nearest railroad" card is included twice by design. The widely recognizable (and often parodied) "Get Out of Jail Free" card has its two clauses in the opposite order one would expect: "This card may be kept until needed or sold" appears at the top of the card, with "Get out of jail free" on the bottom.

The text on each card is as folows:

# ADVANCE TO GO (COLLECT $200) # ADVANCE TO ILLINOIS AVE. # ADVANCE TOKEN TO NEAREST UTILITY. IF UNOWNED you may buy it from bank. IF OWNED, throw dice and pay owner a total ten times the amount thrown. # Advance token to the nearest Railroad and pay owner Twice the Rental to which he is otherwise entitled. If Railroad is unowned, you may buy it from the Bank. # Advance token to the nearest Railroad and pay owner Twice the Rental to which he is otherwise entitled.
