HOW TO PLAY
1

Deal five cards to each player from a shuffled deck.

2

Each player looks for any three cards in hand that add up to a multiple of ten, setting those aside.

3

The remaining two cards are added together, and only the last digit of that sum counts as the player's score.

4

Players reveal their scoring pair and compare who has the higher single-digit total.

5

The banker or dealer pays out or collects tokens based on how each player's score compares to their own.

6

Rotate the dealer position after each round so everyone gets a turn banking.
