The Deal
This game has eleven rounds. The first dealer is chosen at random and the turn to deal passes to the left after each round. In the first round three cards are dealt to each player, in the second round four cards are dealt and so on until the eleventh and final round in which thirteen cards each are dealt. The remainder of the cards are placed face down on the table to form a stock pile. The top card of the stock is being flipped face up and put beside the stock pile to start the discard pile.

The Play
The player to dealer's left begins, and players take turns clockwise around the table. A turn consists of drawing one card - either the top card of the face down stock pile or the top card of the discard pile - and then discarding one card face up on top of the discard pile. Only the top card of the discard pile can be taken.
Note: If a player discards a wild card and any another player see it, they may grab it out of turn. Should they grab the wild card they will need to discard and play resumes back with player that would have gone next.
Going Out
You can go out only on your turn to play if, after drawing the top card of the stock or the top discard, you are able to arrange all the cards in your hand except one into separate sets, and then discard a card. In this case, when discarding you announce that you are out. Each of the other players is allowed one more turn. When the turn to play comes back to you the round is over and the scores are calculated.
