Yes and that makes it “pick up 7”.

We play the King of Spades on top of the Queen of Spades if you have it (you’re the next player in line only) and then the next player in line has to pick up the 5 cards and not you.

We play it that if you put the Queen of Spades down, the next player in line has to pick up 5. But, if they play the King of Spades, it goes on to the next player in line.
2’s add up. The unlucky one with no 2 has to pick up the added up number.

We’ve never played that you can put down more than one card at a time, unless it’s 2 people playing and you put down a Jack, or multiple Jacks. Either way, a Jack means a missed turn for the next player in line.

And, a very fun variation we invented is, when a player has to pick up cards, the other players thump the table with their palms in count to the number of cards (like 5 for the Queen of Spades) as they hit the table as the victim deals them out.
Then, each time the victim pics the cards up, they have to say “Thank You” in a very bright, happy voice…or we make them pick up two more. Truly, they have to sound delighted or pick up two more! And you watch the expression on their face and they have to look delighted!

At the end of the game, whoever has cards left in their hand, we make them pick up the cards left in their hand, as in any 2’s or Queens of Spades, not forgetting to say “Thank You” in a very delighted voice. (or pick up two more)
It’s really fun.

From what I know it would add up. For example, if the player to the left plays a queen on another queen the following player is required to draw ten cards, still losing a turn.

I’m I the middle of a game and we paused it and haven’t laid a card down since. We are waiting to hear back from others on the subject before we continue our game.
