Buying Jokers Seen and Unseen

Setup Each player is dealt three cards: one face-down (closed) card and two face-up (open) cards.

Jokers Jokers can be bought in two rounds to improve your hand. A joker card means that if you hold that specific number or face card, it acts as a joker and can substitute for any other card to improve your hand.

Rounds There are 2 optional rounds for buying jokers. All bets go into the pot.

• 1st Round: Players pay a set amount to buy a random joker (only for themselves) from the deck, which is kept open.

• 2nd Round: Players pay double the first round's amount to buy (takeaway) each other's open jokers. The player with the joker does not have the right to refuse the sale.

Objective Form the best hand using your cards and the jokers.

Example

• You start with: A♥️ (open), 2♣️ (open), 4♦️ (closed).

• In the 1st round, you buy 2♥️.

• In the 2nd round, you buy 4♦️.

• You make: A♥️, A♣️, A♦️ (trail).
