How to play Points

Rummy?

Points Rummy is the fastest, simplest

variant of Rummy where players play
for points with pre-decided rupee
value.
Fastest because each game lasts for 1
deal only.
Simplest because one winner wins all
the cash at the end of each game.
@DeccanRummy it is all the more
easier and simpler :)

Objective
Arrange all 13 cards in-hand in
sequences and/or sets. The cards in
hand are arranged to form at least two
sequences, out of which one has to be
a pure sequence. The other remaining
cards can be arranged in valid
sequences and/or sets.

Gameplay
* Random toss decides the player who
will make the first move.
* Wild Joker is randomly selected and 13
cards are dealt to each player.
* First card from the pack is placed in
the open deck.
* Remaining cards are placed facedown.
* Each player takes turns to pick/discard
a card from closed/open deck to
complete sets and/or sequences

Note:
In case a Printed Joker is selected
as joker, then Ace card of any suit is
used as a joker in their sets /
sequences.
Must :
To finish the game, you must
declare at least two sequences, one
of which must be a pure sequence.
Caution :
With two decks, you cannot use the
same card twice in a set. For
instance - 5 5 5 is not a valid set.

Declare:
* Discard one of the cards in the finish slot.
* Click on the 'Declare' button.
* Group and declare your sets and
sequences.
Drop:
* Each player gets an option to drop the
game in their turn, throughout the game
duration.
* To avail the Drop option, the player must
not have picked a card from open/closed
deck in that turn.

First Drop : If a player drops the game in

their very first turn, they get 20 points.
Middle Drop : If a player drops the game
in a turn other than the first, they get 40
points.
Missed Turns : If a player misses 3
consecutive turns, he/she is dropped from
the game. This means that this player gets
40 points.
Disconnection Scenario : If a player gets
disconnected, they are dropped from the
game and get 40 points.

Scoring Pattern
1. Each card carries a certain number of points. The
losing player gets points equal to their hand score :
J, Q, K, A of any suit carry 10 points each.
Numbered cards carry the same points as their value.
Joker cards carry zero points.
2. At the end of the game, a losing player's hand score is
computed by adding points for cards that are not grouped
as sets/sequences with the following exceptions.
If there are no pure sequence, all cards are counted.
If the loser does not have two sequences, but has a
pure sequence, only the pure sequence is not counted.

3. Full count : Maximum points that a player

can get in one game is 80.
Considering HS - Hand Score | PTs - Points.
* If HS<80 then PTs = HS
* If HS>=80 then PTs = 80
4. Special Case 1 : If the losing player has not
had his first turn before the opponent has made a
valid declaration, then they get 20 points.
5. Special Case 2 : If a player declares without
meeting the game objective, they get 80 points
and the game continues till there is a winner.

Winnings = (Total points of all losing players X

Point value) DeccanRummy Fees
* Five players play on Rs. 5 per point table and a
player declares the game and wins all the cash lost
by other players.
* If the four players lose with 10,20,30,and 40
points respectively, the winners cash amount will
be calculated as: 5 x (10 + 20 + 30 + 40) = Rs. 500
