Cards in each suit rank, from low to high:A-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-J-Q-K . Each player is dealt a hand of tencards. One card is placed face up on the table to start the discardpile, and the remainder of the deck is placed face down to form thestock. Melding is taking a combination of cards from your hand, andplacing it face up in front of you on the table, where it stays.There are two kinds of combination which can be melded: sequencesand groups. Sequence consists of three or more cards of the samesuit in consecutive order, such as -2-3 or 10-J-Q-K. Group is threeor four cards of the same rank, such as 7-7-7 or K-K-K-K. Layingoff is adding a card from your hand to a meld already on the table.The cards added to a meld must make another valid meld. Discardingis playing a card from your hand on top of the discard pile.Players take alternate turns. Each turn consists of Draw, Melding,Laying off and Discard. The Draw You must begin by taking one cardfrom either the top of the Stock or the top card on the discardpile, and adding it to your hand. The discard pile is face up, soyou can see in advance what you are getting. The stock is facedown. Melding If you have a valid group or sequence in your hand,you may lay such combination face up on the table in front of you.Laying off If you wish, you may add cards to groups or sequencespreviously melded by yourself or others. You may not lay off anycards on other player melds until you have laid down at least onemeld of your own. The Discard At the end of your turn, one cardmust be discarded from your hand and placed on top of the discardpile face up. You are not allowed to end the turn by discarding thesame card that you pick from the discard pile. You can discard thatcard at a later turn. If the stock pile has run out, the discardpile is turned over, to form a new stock, and play continues.Discard pile can be reused two times. After that hand is finishedand score is calculated for each player. Scoring When a player goesout of cards, other player add up the value of all the cards stillremaining in the hand. Face cards (K,Q,J) are worth 10 points each,Aces are worth 1 point each, Number Cards are worth their facevalue. The total value of all the cards in the hand is added to thewinner's cumulative score.
