When you are playing you can receive an extra penalty card if you:. Use two hands while playing. Stick a wrong card. If a card is placed on the throwaway pile and a player knows one of their cards is the same, they can stick it on top of the matching card so now they have one less card. Only one player may stick per card so be quick!
If you stick a card and are wrong about that card, you have to keep the card in addition to receiving a penalty card. I think this makes sense, because then there could be a strategy if you have 2 cards of the same value, you could immediately force a discard of one of those cards to match the second card.
This must be done prior to the next player touching the deck. Once the player calls Cambio, the rest of the players get one more turn to play before everyone flips their cards and adds up their points. The person with the least amount of points wins. If you pull a card from the deck, you can immediately stick it after you place it on the throwaway pile. If there is a tie for lowest total score at the end of the game, in order to determine the winner further rounds are played until there is a single player or team with the lowest score.
Some play that the players take turns to deal. After each round that ends with a score, the turn to deal passes to the right. Some people play Hand with Jokers as the only wild cards. In that case, Aces are natural cards and no wild card indicator is revealed in the beginning.
This arrangement is much more straightforward than the normal game and makes no significant difference to the play. The motive for the usual more complicated arrangement where the wild card can be either a Joker or an Ace is presumably to reduce the temptation for a dishonest player to try to recognise the wild cards from their backs.
If the wild card changes from round to round, this kind of cheating becomes significantly more difficult. Some people play with a deck of cards without Jokers. In this case the wild cards are always the Aces of the suit shown by the wild card indicator and there are no natural Aces of this suit. If the indicator card is an Ace there are two possibilities:. Some play that each successive player's initial meld must be greater in value that the previous initial meld. For example if the minimum is initially set at 51 and the first player who melds puts down 56 points, the next player will need at least 57 points for their initial meld.
Some players allow a card taken from the discard pile to be added to an existing meld on the table, either alone or together with a card or cards from the player's hand, provided that the player who discarded the card already has meld on the table and also the player who takes it has already melded or can satisfy the initial meld requirement. If a wild card is discarded, some players allow it to be taken by the next player only if it is melded in a group of Aces, not in a sequence A or J-Q-K.
Some players do not allow a discarded wild card to be taken by the next player in any circumstances. On the other hand, some allow the next player to take the discarded wild card and use it in any meld where a wild card could normally be used always provided that they already have meld or can satisfy the initial requirement. When replacing a wild card with a card or cards from hand, some require the wild card to be reused immediately on the table, either in a new meld or by adding it to an existing meld.
The player is not allowed to keep the wild card in their hand for later use. Some allow a third equal card to be added to group of two equal cards and a wild card by any player who has already melded or can meet the initial meld requirement.
For example if Q- Q-wild has been melded, the Q or Q can be added to it. The restriction that this can only be done when a player is going out or when at least one player is reduced to one card is not enforced.
Some allow the play continue until the face down stock is completely empty. In this variant, if the player who draws the last card of the stock does not meld all their cards and win, the round ends without a score and the same dealer deals again. Some do not end the play when the stock is exhausted. Instead, when the stock pile is empty, they create a new stock pile by shuffling all the cards of the discard pile apart from its top card, which remains in place.
In Egypt, and maybe in some countries of the Arabian Peninsula, scores are doubled for winning with certain special types of hand. Such a hand may include one or two wild cards, whose colour is irrelevant. These doubles for ending with wild card discards, single colour and single suit can be combined. The Jawaker website has rules in English. Hand can be played online on their website or using their Hand app for Android.
Hand is also available within their games bundle for Android or iOS. The Kuwaiti website Koutbo6 has rules in English. They also offer a Hand app for iOS. There is a Hand Wikipedia page in Arabic. Bojacob offer a Hand app for iOS.
Hand This page is based on information from Sultan Ratrout. Players and Cards Hand can be played by 2, 3 or 4 players playing as individuals, or by 4 players in fixed partnerships with partners sitting opposite each other. Deal and play are counter-clockwise. Melds Each player has an area in front of them in the table for melding cards.
There are two types of meld: sequences runs and groups sets. Initial Meld Each player's first meld in each round must consist of valid sequences and groups whose cards have a total value of at least 51 points. Wild Cards The wild cards are determined during the deal by an indicator card placed face up on the table. If the wild card indicator is not an Ace, the two Aces of the same suit as the indicator are the wild cards.
In this case the two Jokers are used as the natural Aces of the indicator suit. For example if the wild card indicator is the 8 then the Aces of clubs are wild and the Jokers are used exactly as though they were natural Aces of clubs. If the wild card indicator is an Ace, then the two Jokers are the wild cards, and all the Aces are natural cards, including the Ace of the same suit as the indicator.
Examples , with 7 as the indicator card, so that the A is wild; 7- A- 9 is then a valid sequence, with the A representing the missing 8. J- A- K-Joker is a valid sequence. Here the wild A represents the Q and the Joker functions as a natural A. Q- K- A is also valid, using the A as a wild card representing the A. However, A- K- A is not a valid sequence, because a combination cannot contain more than one wild card and the A is wild.
A- A- A-Joker is a valid natural set of four Aces. A- A-Joker is also valid. Here the natural club Ace is already present in the form of a Joker, so the wild club Ace represents the other Aces, the A and the A, and the natural versions of either of these can be added to the group later.
Value of Wild Cards When a wild card is used in a player's initial meld the value of the wild card is equal to the value of the natural card it represents. A wild card remaining in a player's hand at the end of the play has a value of 15 points.
Replacing Wild Cards A player who has already put down their initial meld and who holds the natural card s represented by a wild card in their own meld or another player's meld can replace the wild card with the corresponding natural card s from their hand during their turn.
A wild card in a sequence can be replaced by the natural card corresponding to its position. For example if the sequence 7-wild- 9 is on the table a player who holds a 8 can place it in the sequence and take the wild card in exchange.
In a group consisting of two equal cards and a wild card, the wild card can be replaced by the two natural cards of the same rank in the missing suits, creating a four-card group. For example if the group 5- 5-wild is on the table, a player who holds both a 5 and a 5 can place these two cards in the group and take the wild card in exchange.
In a group consisting of three equal cards and a wild card, the wild card can be replaced by the natural card of the missing suit. For example if the group K- K- K-wild is on the table, the holder of a K can place it in the group and take the wild card in exchange. More on Groups with Wild Cards It is legal to meld from hand three equal cards of different suit plus a wild card as a group for example Q- Q- Q-wild , provided that the player has already melded or can meld at least 51 points on this turn.
There are two exceptions to this: The player melds all their remaining cards except one on this turn and discards their final card, ending the play. At the the end of the player's turn, after they have discarded, there will be at least one player in the game with only one card remaining in their hand. This case can arise in two ways. Either some other player has already announced 'one card', or after melding, the player has only two cards left, discards one of them and then announces 'one card'.
Deal The first dealer is chosen by any convenient method. If it is a Joker, the dealer must insert it back into the stock pile and draw another card to be the wild card indicator. If it is an Ace, it indicates that the Jokers will be the two wild cards for this deal. If it is a suit card other than an Ace, it indicates that the Aces of that suit will be the two wild cards for this deal, and that the printed Jokers will act as the natural Aces of that suit.
Play The player to dealer's right, who has 15 cards, starts the play by discarding any one card from hand face up to start a "discard pile" in the middle of the table. A player's turn consists of the following actions: Draw one card, either from the top of the face down stock pile or from the top of the face up discard pile.
