INTRODUCTION OF GERMAN RUMMY

Although this game is called German Rummy by outsiders, within its homeland it is simply known as Rommé. German Rummy differentiates itself from the classic 500 Rum by utilizing two decks, 4 Jokers, and the ability to “plunder” Jokers from established melds.  Think you will be able to start dropping melds on the table quickly?  Think again!  Your first meld must be worth at least 40 points.  바카라사이트

Play one round for each player at the table, so each player gets to deal one time.  The player with the highest score at the end of the game wins.

THE CARDS & THE DEAL

German Rummy is played with two 52 card decks and 4 Jokers.  The traditional German Rommé deck comes with 6 jokers, but most French decks only come with 2.

The dealer doles out 13 cards to each player one at a time.  The remaining cards are placed in the center of the table and become the draw pile.  The dealer should then flip one card over face up to begin the discard pile.

MELDS

In German Rummy, there are two types of melds: runs and sets. A run is a sequence of three or more cards of the same suit.  2-3-4-5 all of hearts is an example of a run.  The second type of meld is called a set.  A set is composed of three or more cards of the same rank.  Q-Q-Q is an example of a set.  Sets may not contain cards of the same suit.

In this game, Aces can be played both high or low, but players cannot go around the corner.  This means that Aces cannot be played in the middle of the run.  For example, playing Q-K-A-2 is an illegal run.

Melds may be built with Jokers, but there is a special rule that applies.  A meld cannot be built with more than one joker unless there is at least two other cards.  For example, set of 3-Joker-Joker is an illegal meld.  A 3-3-Joker-Joker is perfectly legal.

FIRST MELD

During the game, a player’s first meld must be worth at least 40 points.  Once a player successfully lays down a meld worth 40 points or more, they may begin playing other melds.

LAYING OFF

Once a player has played their first meld, they may also lay off.  This is done by playing cards on melds that have already been built.  A player may lay off on their own meld or their opponents’.
