GLOSSARY

Dealing: The distribution of cards by the dealer to each player at the start of each hand (a play). To choose the dealer, a toss must be made, after which the deal is made.

Dealer: When a hand begins, the player who deals cards is the dealer. The players are the ones to decide who will be the dealer in offline games or make a toss to decide.

Group: Rummy has two types of melds, groups and pairs. Sets or books are made up of three to four cards of the same rank but different suits. Only Jokers can form a set.

Melding: Playing cards in certain combinations, i.e., groups or sequences, by placing them visibly on the playing field is called melding.

Points Value: Points value is a pre-decided value in a Rummy game that helps determine a player's final winnings. We use the following formula to calculate winnings:

Sequence: In rummy, a sequence is a series of consecutive cards of the same suit. In other words, a sequence can either be pure or impure.

Shuffling: The process of maintaining the randomness of cards. Both online and on physical cards. When you shuffle physical cards, you slide them over one another repeatedly.
