HOW TO PLAY
1

Deal a hand of cards to each player and set the rest of the deck aside as a draw pile.

2

Before playing a card to a trick, a player may first lay down a qualifying combination from their hand, such as a run of three or more cards, or three of a kind, to score bonus points.

3

Play tricks in turn, following the led suit when possible, with the highest card of the led suit winning unless a priority card changes the outcome.

4

Certain high cards score extra points specifically when they are the very last card played in a trick, rewarding careful timing.

5

After each trick, players draw back up to their starting hand size from the draw pile until it runs out.

6

Total each player's combination bonuses and trick points once the hand is fully played, and play multiple hands toward an agreed target score.
