For example, if the discard is five hearts, you can play a run such as: five spades, six spades, six clubs, six diamonds, seven diamonds, seven clubs. They must follow suit or rank, but each player can lay as long a chain or run as they can, providing the card ranks match as you jump from suit to suit. Place the remainder of the cards face down on the table, then turn the top one over to form a discard pile.
This is the modern version of crazy eights, or knock knock, with as many wild cards as are physically possible.ĭeal five cards each, or seven if there are only three or four of you.
