Helpful Tips

• To find the wild card, count the number of cards in your hand. That number is the wild card for that round.
  
• The game slogan says: The game isn’t over till the kings go out. That means you can come from behind even in the last hand.
  
• After someone goes out and you have a joker and wild card in your hand and you can’t play it, the best option would be to discard it. Because the jokers and wild cards are worth lots of points.
  
• The discard card can only be drawn by the next player. For example; if someone discards a wild card and it’s not your turn, you should remain silent, it could be missed. As soon as the next player draws, that card will be dead and no one can draw it. This applies to all the discards cards.
  
• You only get one turn after someone goes out, so keeping 3 kings in your hand is an advantage( because you can constitute a book). But keeping 2 kings and no wild card is a big disadvantage.
  
• If you playing 7 players and in the last round. Your draw pile 25 cards are used, then the discard pile should be reshuffled and used to replenish the stack and if you playing more than 7 players, then you must reuse the discard pile during the last hands.
