MATERIALS
- A deck of narrow Ceki playing cards
HOW TO PLAY
1
Shuffle the narrow deck and deal a fixed hand of cards to each player, leaving a stock pile in the center.
2
Players arrange their hand by suit and rank, looking to form matching sets or runs.
3
On each turn, a player draws a card from the stock or discard pile and then discards one card they no longer need.
4
Watch the discards carefully, since a needed card thrown away by an opponent can sometimes be claimed to complete a set.
5
The first player to arrange their entire hand into valid complete sets calls out to end the round.
6
Score the round based on the value of unmatched cards left in opponents' hands, and play multiple rounds for a full game.
