Rummy Rules

The Rummy card game is played by building series of cards (called “melds”). The melds are either three or four of a kind of the same rank (called “sets”) or three or more sequential cards of the same suit (called “runs”). You win by ridding yourself of all your your cards (“go out”) by laying down melds on the table, or by laying off/discarding cards as described below.

The participants play in turns. When it’s your turn, draw the top card from the stock or the discard pile. If you choose to draw from the discard pile, you may draw multiple cards.

If you can put together three cards of the same suit in a sequence or run, meld them by laying these cards face up on the table. If at least three cards of the same rank are held, you can meld them as a set or group. Melding is optional and you can make as many as possible in one turn. You can also “lay off” some cards on an existing meld if you can add to a sequence or a set that is already on the table, regardless of who initially melded it.

Finally in your turn, after making any melds or lay offs, you must discard a single card to the discard pile, face up. You can not discard back a card you picked from the discard pile earlier.

If the stock runs out of playing cards, you can choose to draw from the discard pile or to turn it over to form a new stock. After forming the new stock, the top card must be drawn to start a new discard pile. You can call rummy if a point is discarded into the discard pile, but not if the card becomes a point while it is in the discard pile.

You may “go out” by discarding the last remaining card you have, whether as part of a meld or a lay-off or a discard.

If you go out first, you win and score as many points as the other player have in cards. Court cards count 10 points each, Jokers 15 points each, and number cards score their value. Aces count as 1 point unless they are allowed to be high (11 points).

Short Summary:

The aim of the Rummy game is to find combinations for your cards and put them on the table.

Each player starts the game with a preset number of cards. The remaining cards are placed face down in a stock pile on the table. The card on top of the pile is placed beside it, facing up.

Then the game starts, and the players take turns in placing cards on the table. A player can place one or more combinations on the table if he is able to, or just discard one of his cards.

Place combinations on the table

The player who first place all his cards on the table, wins the round. The winning score is calculated by summing up the cards of all the opponents. Face cards are 10 points, aces are 1 point, and the rest of the cards their number value. If the winner by some miracle is able to place all his cards in 1 turn, the points are doubled. The first player who reaches 200 points wins the game.
