How do I decide on the suit that I should play?

If after receiving your cards from the dealer you have several cards in a certain suit, then you can choose to play that suit as your own for that round of the game. If you have only one card from each suit, then simply pick to play the remaining suit that no other player chose - and don't worry, you can still be a winner!

What is the objective of the game?

The objective is to be the first player to arrange your cards from ace to 9 in your own suit. But the game does not stop when the first winner is declared – the game continues until all players have arranged their cards, and if by the end of the game all players have a winning arrangement, there are no losers. The player who does not achieve a winning arrangement by the end of the game gets busted. 

 

 

Which card do I pick when I decide on the card from the pile or from the box?

If you decide on the card from the pile, you take the top card facing you. Your next step is to turn any one card in your hand to see the back side, and then return any one unwanted card into the pile. That ends their turn.

 

If you decide on the card from the box, then you should take any card from the standing pile of cards in the box. It could be the card from the back or the middle of the deck – it is your choice – but you must choose it at random. Your next step is to turn any one card in your hand to see the back side, and then return any one unwanted card into the pile. That ends their turn.

 

 

Do I play against any other player?

You primarily play against the player on the left. Don’t let the player on your left win before you. Don’t discard the cards that he or she needs to win. Don’t forget to keep tabs on the cards of the player on your right, because he or she may discard some cards that you need in order to win.
