Gin Rummy
Form melds and knock before your opponent does
About Gin Rummy
Gin Rummy is a two-player card game where players draw and discard to form melds (sets of 3+ same rank, or runs of 3+ same suit). Knock when your unmatched cards (deadwood) total 10 or fewer.
Objective
Be the first to reach the target score by forming melds and knocking — or going gin.
How Scorecard tracks Gin Rummy
The knocker scores the difference in deadwood. Going gin (no deadwood) earns a gin bonus. If the non-knocker has equal or less deadwood, they 'undercut' and earn a bonus instead.
