Or if you think about golf, you want the lowest score possible. Each game consists of 9 rounds, or 9 holes. You can also play 18 holes and the player with the lowest combined score at the end of the 9 rounds wins the game. Each card has a point value. These are broken down below:. One of the goals is to end up with cards that are worth the least amount of points at the end of each round.
Additionally, there is another way to reduce your number of points you score. These cards would cancel each other out, so both are worth 0 points. So, as we go into the play and the objectives, remember that sometimes picking up a card worth more points is a good strategy if it means you can cancel out another card.
The player to the left of the dealer will go first. They begin by flipping over 2 of their cards. Which 2 they decide to flip over is their choice. At this point, they have two options. This can be tricky, as at this point you cannot see all of your cards. At no point do you have more than six cards in your hand.
For every card you draw, you have to discard one of your current cards. This can be a card you have already flipped over, or a card that is still face down. That is part of the game where luck comes in to play. Every time you trade in a card that was face down, you run the risk of giving up a good card and passing it off to other players. They will follow the same steps, flipping up 2 cards of their choice , drawing a card from either the discard pile or the deck, and trading in one of their cards to discard.
Each player will do this until every player has taken 1 turn, ending with the dealer. After the first rotation, players continue to take their turns, going clockwise from the dealer.

As a second option, they can draw a card from either the deck or the discard pile only the top card and exchange it for one of their cards.
Just like in the first rotation, the new card can be exchanged for either a card that is already face up, or a card that has not been turned over yet. The final round will begin once any player is the first to turn over all of their cards. This is the discard pile. The non-dealer starts the game by either choosing to pick up the top card from the discard pile and replace it with a card from their hand, or pass the turn without picking up a card or discarding. The opponent then takes a turn, and this time has the option to draw from the top of the deck, the discard pile, or pass without drawing and discarding.
The game continues back and forth in this way, with the players attempting to group cards from the 10 in their hand into minimum combos of three cards of the same rank like three threes or three 10s or runs of the same suit like a 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 of diamonds. If a player is left with cards in their hand that cannot be combined into a match, they can fold, thus ending the match. A game of Gin Rummy ends when enough matches have been played to allow one player to get or more points.
So how do you get points? So for example, if you make Gin, and your opponent had two 5s and a 9 in their hand, you would score 44 points for that round! If the player who folded wins the game, they score the difference in the value of their unmatched cards with those of their opponent.
If the opponent wins instead, they score 10 points plus the difference in the value of the unmatched cards between both players. Egyptian Ratscrew is a game of speed and dexterity that can be played with a 52 card deck, including jokers.

The non-dealer starts game play by turning up the card on the top of their pile and placing it in the middle of the table between the two players. If that card is a number card, the opponent puts down a card from their deck too. The game continues in this way until a face card Jack, Queen, King or Ace is played.
When a face card or Ace is played, the next player must also play a face card or Ace for the game to continue. Players can attempt to be the first one to slap the pile of cards when any of the following situations occur.

To get started, the dealer gives the opponent one card face up, and one card face down, then repeats this for themselves.
Both players then peek at the value of the facedown card and add that to the value of their face up card. The goal is for the value of both cards added together to be as close to 21 as possible. While all numerical cards have their same numerical values, scoring is a bit different for face cards. Jacks, queens, and kings are all worth 10 points, and aces can be worth either one point or 11 points. Depending on how close to 21 their cards are, both players must decide whether to hit or stay. The winner of the hand is the player whose total gets closest to 21 without going over.
