Rummy is the most popular matching type card game played with a french deck of
52 cards.

Common variants of the game are for 2, 3, or 4 players. The players’ target is
to create melds of cards with the same value or same suit. The final objective
is to be the first to terminate the cards and score the accorded game points.

 * Session score




PLAYERS AND CARDS

The game is usually played by 2,3 or 4 players. In our variant you can play
Rummy for 4 players where each player scores for himself.

All 52 cards from the standard French deck are used in the game. Depending on
the session options, the Low Ace or High Ace rule is applied:

 * In Low Ace , the rank of cards in which sequences can be formed is:
   A, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K
 * In High Ace , the rank of cards in which sequences can be formed is:
   2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K, A

The card values used for calculating the hand score are as follows:

 * Face cards (K, Q, J) are worth 10 points each.
 * Aces are worth 1 or 15 points, depending on the session options ( Low Ace or
   High Ace , respectively).
 * Number cards are worth their face value – for example, a six is worth 6
   points, a four is 4 points, and so on.


DEALING

 * The first dealer is selected randomly.
 * The dealer for the next games is the next one in a clockwise direction.
 * Dealing is in a clockwise direction.
 * The number of cards dealt depends on the number of players:
   10 for 2 players
   7 for 3 and 4 players
 * After cards are dealt, the remaining form the Stock.
 * The top card from the Stock is placed separately face-up, forming the
   beginning of the discard pile.


PLAYING THE CARDS

Players take turns in clockwise rotation, beginning with the player to dealer’s
left.


TURN ACTIONS

Each turn consists of the following parts:



 1. Drawing
    The player must begin by taking one card from either the top of the
    Stockpile (without showing it to other players), or from the top card on the
    discard pile, and adding it to his/her hand.
 2. Melding or Laying off.
    When possible, the player could do some of the following:
    
    
    
    * Melding
      If the player has a valid group or sequence in his hand, he may lay one
      such combination face up on the table. The player can meld one or more
      combinations in a turn. Melding is optional; players are not obliged to
      meld, even if they can.
    * Laying off
      The player could add cards to groups or sequences already melded on the
      table. There is no limit to the number of cards a player may lay off in
      one turn. Identically to melding, laying off is optional; players are not
      obliged to do it even if they can.
 3. Discarding
    At the end of the turn, the player must discard one card from his hand and
    place it on top of the discard pile face-up:
    
    
    
    * When in this turn the player took a card from the discard pile it is not
      allowed to discard it in the same turn. It is allowed to discard the card
      in the next turn.
    * It is allowed to discard the card that was taken in the same turn from the
      Stock.
    * When after discarding there are no more cards in the player’s hand, the
      player becomes a winner.

If, while playing, the stock runs out, the next player may choose to draw from
the discard pile or to turn the discard pile over to form a new stock. After
creating the new stock, the top card is drawn to form the new discard pile, just
like after the deal. Consider that exhausting the stock for a second time would
end the round.


ROUND SCORE

The first player who remains without cards wins the round. When this happens,
the values of the cards that remained are added to the hands of the losing
player. This is the number of points the winner scores for the round.



If you plan your turns carefully, you can win a round with Rummy, thus scoring
twice more points. To announce Rummy, during your last turn you meld or lay off
all your cards (except one), and then you discard your last card. Consider that
you can only do this if you haven’t melded or laid off any card in your previous
turns.

When the round ends because the stock was exhausted for a second time, the
winner would be the player whose hand has the lowest value. In this case, the
value of the losing hands is reduced with the value of the winner’s hand. Then
values calculated this way are added – this is the number of points scored by
the winner. For example, assume player’s hand values are 6 (Alice), 15 (Bob), 7
(Carol), and 21 (Dan). Alice is the winner. The value of the losing hands is
reduced by 6, so they are 9, 1, and 15 (respectively). Alice scores 25 points.


SESSION SCORE

The session goes on until a player reaches the winning score, for example, 150
points. This player wins the session. For custom games, the winning score can be
changed, for example to 100.
