The drawn card is added to their hand.ĭiscarding: After drawing a card, the player must choose one card from their hand to discard onto the discard pile. If the dealer doesn’t have a complete deck of cards or doesn’t distribute the correct number of cards to each player, it can result in a misdeal.Ī typical player’s turn involves two main actions: drawing and discarding.ĭrawing: At the beginning of their turn, the player must pick a card from the stockpile (the face-down pile in the center) or the discard pile (the face-up pile next to the stockpile). A single card from the top of the stockpile is revealed, placed face-up, and thus initiates the formation of the discard pile. The remaining cards are positioned face down at the center of the table, constituting what is known as the stockpile. Subsequently, the dealer proceeds to distribute 10 cards to each player alternately, one card at a time for each player. The dealer begins by thoroughly shuffling the deck, ensuring a random distribution of cards. Players are dealt a specific number of cards, and the game revolves around drawing and discarding cards to form valid sets and runs.
