How to Play 13 Card Rummy

Indian cash rummy is 13 cards per seat. Points, Pool and Deals share this deal. You draw one, throw one, until every card sits in a valid group and you can declare.

TurnDraw one, discard one. Timer runs.

The deal

Two 52-card decks plus printed jokers. One card is opened as the wild joker. Each seat gets 13. The leftover closed pile and the open discard are the two places you draw from.

Pure sequence first

A consecutive same-suit run with no joker. Without it a declare is a wrong show. Finish this run before you spend jokers on pretty sets.

How a turn works

Pick closed or the top open card. Throw one. Miss the timer and some tables auto-drop you. The turn timer guide covers that clock.
