Say someone is playing a set of 3, and plays it in 7's. So, if six people are playing and the dealer picks up exactly 60 cards, then the dealer, subtracts 100 points from his score.Ī set is three or more cards of the same number. One player shuffles, another cuts the deck and places it in the middle, the player who is to deal, attempts to pick up exactly the number of cards needed for the hand.
A 2 can replace an opponent's card, and the players can replace other cards with a 2. 2's played as any other card, except for a 2. So five people playing would need 3 full decks. If playing an odd number of people, then add a deck for that odd number. One standard deck of cards for every two players. There are sets and/or runs for each round. Each round requires that a certain combination or sets be played. I learned it from my mother, so I have decided to put it on my Cheapskate Grandma Page. Kind of like Gin Rummy, but with a twist.
I remember living in Phoenix and having game night at my apartment.
