game played with eight decks. Ten cards are dealt to each player. Payoffs are assigned to combinations of cards. Example three threes, fives, or sevens of different suits are paid one chip by everyone playing the hand. (You can choose to play or not play at the beginning of each hand) If the cards are suited everyone pays two chips. If the cards are all spades everyone pays four chips. Other suited combinations of three of the same card (three aces or duces or ?? any) pay the same way. The hand is over when a players rummys. Eleven cards is a rummy. The rummying player is payed again by each player for every chip he collected during this hand plus two chips for rummy. As you can see it can get very expensive.
