<p>Yes to both. You quoted the answer <strong>You should always have five cards in your hand.</strong> You would draw a card to bring your hand size back to 5, and your opponent would have to discard a card to bring their hand back down to 5.</p>

<p>In the game of <a href="http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/96188/nuts" rel="nofollow">Nuts</a> the rules state:</p>

<pre><code>Drawing Cards
Whenever you play a card, whether on your turn or out of
turn, immediately draw a card from the deck.  You should
always have five cards in your hand.
</code></pre>

<p>There is an Antics card called 'Share Your Nuts' that reads:</p>

<pre><code>Pass one card from your hand to the
player on your left, chosen at random.
</code></pre>

<p><strong>Do the hand size rules make the person playing the card draw up to five cards and force the player on the left to discard down to five?</strong></p>
