RUM 

tATING: 5

PLAYERS: 2 to 4

OBJECT: To get the most points(usually either 200 or 500).

SETUP: Deal 7 cards to each player.  Set the rest of the cards down in a pile face down,  but flip the top card face up.

PLAY: The first player looks at his hand and decides if he wants to pick up the card that is face up or draw off of the pile.  If he has any spreads(a spread is a three of a kind or three cards or more in the same suit that are in order).  At the end of his turn, the player must throw away a card.  On another player's turn they may add on to an existing spread. When a player runs out of cards, the round is over. Each player totals their points for that round. Aces are 15, Face cards are ten, and everything else is 5.You take off the number of points in their hand from their number of points.
 
 
 

WINNING: The first person to get to the set number of points wins.
