'''Strip Poker''', [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|as the name suggests]], is any [[Poker]] game that involves the loss of one's clothing. Either as a penalty of sorts (for folding or losing, for example), or from the clothes being anted in a hand.

* An old vodka (Smirnoff?){{verify}} advertisement has a woman who is "1 part card shark, 1 part cheat, 1 part exhibitionist", where in a mixed-gender game of Strip Poker she ''deliberately'' loses, despite palming a card, and has to take off her bra.

* Another vodka advert has ''strip chess''. The woman wins.
* Inversion: The regional furniture chain Oak Express had a bunch of ads showing "unnatural" scenarios to contrast with the store's wares. One such scenario has a bunch of nudists playing "Dress Poker".

* Variation in ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' One of the girls in Negi's class asks if the students can play Baseball Janken, a quiz game to help review for the big test. Negi approves. Unfortunately, (or [[Fan Service|fortunately, as the case may be]]) he's too innocent/uninformed to know that the game's primary rule appears to be "answer a question wrong, lose an article of clothing." The [[Baka]] Rangers get stripped to their underwear within four minutes.
* In ''[[Ranma ½]]'', in order to defeat the infamous [[The Gambler|Gambling King]], Ranma "trains" with Ukyô and Akane by playing Old Maid. By morning, he's down to his underwear and the girls own not only his clothes, but many, many IOUs for his services.
Line 28 ⟶ 26:
* In ''[[Gamble Fish]]'', there is a strange variation of Strip Dice: dice are rolled and the two girls playing must come up with a prime number by combining the dice numbers in some fashion. It must be a higher number than the previous turn. If you give a prime number, the opponent loses an article of clothing. If the number you give isn't prime, you lose an article. Later, there is a high-stakes poker match in which Tomu's harem has to take off clothing in his stead.
* Davis starts to suggest a game of this in the dub version of ''[[Digimon Adventure 02|Digimon]]'''s [[Christmas Episode]]. Yes, the ''dubbed version''. While the girls (more specifically, his crush Kari) are in the room. [[Digimon/Radar|My, my...]] To be fair it is cut off after "Strip", and is really more of a [[Parental Bonus]].
* In ''[[D.Gray-man|D Gray Man]]'', Allen plays this with Tyki Mikk and his human friends, leaving them without their clothes. One volume of the manga also has a joke inner cover, where it's Tyki and Lavi Allen stripped to their underwear.
* The Fujiyama Gangsta Paradise arc of ''[[Black Lagoon]]'' combines this with a [[Shameful Strip]] for a villainous version. After {{spoiler|Yukio}} is captured, her captors play strip bowling. For every strike they remove a piece of clothing from her. By the time we see her she has lost her skirt and bra, [[Fridge Logic|but for some reason she can still cover herself with her (unbuttoned) shirt.]]
* In the ''[[Asobi ni Iku yo!|Asobi Ni Iku Yo]]'' OVA, the female Catia cast play strip mahjong, strip poker, {{spoiler|strip chess}}, and {{spoiler|strip [[Rock-Paper-Scissors]]}}.

* In one issue of [[Marvel Comics]]' ''Cable and [[Deadpool]]'', the latter title character is playing one of these with Bob From HYDRA, Outlaw and Sandi Brandenberg, with only Deadpool down to his skivvies (or less; the characters are shown only from the waist up), until Cable gives him a hint ("She's bluffing") over a psychic link. Later the girls are seen propositioning The Thing for a similar game.
* The ''[[XXXenophile]]'' story "Fool's Mate" has a woman playing strip ''chess''. Against her dog!
Line 39 ⟶ 36:
* In one strip of ''[[Spinoff Babies|Le Petit]] [[Spirou and Fantasio|Spirou]]'', Spirou is running around the house wearing around fifteen layers of clothing, looking for a deck of cards. His grandfather asks him what the hell he's doing, to which Spirou answers he's going to play the game Gramps taught him. Gramps gets angry and forbids him to play for money, at which point Spirou asks why he'd want to play for money, and we cut to Spirou's similarly attired friends and Suzette in a bathing suit.

* In the ''[[Harry Potter]]/[[Sailor Moon]]/[[Ranma ½]]'' crossover fic ''[[The Girl Who Loved]]'', ghost!Usagi figures out how take off her ectoplasmic clothes, teaches it to Moaning Myrtle and the Grey Lady at Hogwarts, and arranges Strip Poker games between the three of them. [[Fridge Logic|Just don't ask where she got a ghost-friendly pack of cards.]]
* In ''[[The Eighth Weasley]]'', an epic-length ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]/[[Harry Potter]]'' crossover, Spike and Minerva McGonagall turn out to be old (and surprisingly snarky/flirty) friends.

== Films -- Live-Action ==
* Referenced in a brief (no pun intended) joke in Weird Al's ''[[UHF (film)|UHF]]'': Strip Solitaire!

* Jeffrey Archer's book ''A Twist in the Tale'' includes a short story about chess, and particularly a game of strip chess which sounds fairly similar to the vodka advert mentioned above. The titular twist is probably not entirely surprising to a savvy reader though.
Line 69 ⟶ 66:
* Referenced in ''[[To Kill a Mockingbird]]''; when Atticus demands to know why Jem isn't wearing pants (after he loses them while sneaking around the Radley property), Dill lies and says he won them off him in a game of strip poker and accidentally left them there.

* ''[[3rd Rock from the Sun]]'': Mary plays with some of her and Dick's students (there must be a rule against this!) One of them decides to surrender their briefs instead of their socks on the grounds that their feet would get cold.
* ''[[M*A*S*H (television)|MashM*A*S*H]]''
** Hawkeye and Trapper play with a nurse, and Hawkeye demands that the others turn their heads before he will remove his dogtagsdog tags. To make things worse for them, it was ''really, really'' cold outside.
** Speaking of "''really, really'' cold," one of the later "winter" episodes features everyone bundled up in all the cold weather gear they own, playing strip poker. Of course, because it's ''really, really'' cold, losers leave the table when they're down to just "one coat, two gloves, one hat, one scarf," so maybe this doesn't really count as Strip Poker.
** In another episode, a general walks in on a game of two-person strip dominoes. The guy was down to his skivvies and the nurse was still fully dressed.
* ''[[Chuck]]'': [[Those Two Guys|Jeff]] [[Vitriolic Best Buds|and]] [[Those Two Guys|Lester]] of the Nerd Herd, along with Morgan, have weekly poker games. When Captain Awesome is invited out to one after being put in the doghouse with Elle, he comes to the uncomfortable realization that it isn't just any poker—it's strip poker, but only with sad, unattractive men as the players. With the exception of the good captain, they all seem to have a pretty good time with it, though.
* ''[[Mad About You]]'': We see Jamie finally winning the underwear of a group of Paul's friends. ''Thankfully,'' the scene ends quickly.
* ''[[Three's Company|Threes Company]]'': "Snow Job"
* ''[[Friends]]''. Joey kept bugging the others to play a game of strip poker. They eventually give in to shut him up, but because they can't find cards they end up playing strip [[Happy Days]] Game.

Later in the episode, Joey tried to convince Chandler to play him in [[Ho Yay|a one on one game]].

* An actual game show in the early 2000's2000s called ''Strip Poker'' which aired on USA and that network's stable of local stations which had switched from the Home Shopping Network to program a CITY-TV like format for a bit until the ratings didn't pan out and USA sold them out to Univision. Basically '''not''' at all [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]]; the contestants wore four layers of underwear and no thanks to the FCC and USA's advertisers, never got below that last layer. The title promised so much, but it ended up as exciting as playing with paper dolls.
* In an episode of ''[[Swingtown]]'', the teenage characters play a game of strip poker in which the girls beat the guys quite handily.
* A ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' sketch featuring the androgynous Pat had a mixed-gender group try to determine the character's gender with a game of strip poker. Pat loses the first round and a belt. Cut to the end of the game, and Pat's fully dressed while everyone else is practically naked.
