Gin Rummy

The classic card game Gin Rummy. Organize cards into melds, minimize your deadwood and knock before the opponent does!

Gin Rummy - Classic Card Game Extension for Chrome

The 'Gin Rummy' Chrome extension brings the traditional card game to your browser. Players must organize their cards into sets or runs ('melds'), keep their 'deadwood' (unmatched cards) to a minimum, and 'knock' before their opponent to end the round. Multiple rounds are played until a player reaches 100 points. The game's unique strategy lies in choosing when to draw, discard, or lay off cards to either form melds or reduce deadwood. Experience the addictive gameplay of Gin Rummy anytime, anywhere with this interactive extension.

Extension summary

Gin Rummy is a member of the Rummy family of games. As with most games there are plenty of variations out there, so the game might not be exactly like you play it or have different points for some things. Below I'll explain the rules we use on this site. I'll start by explaining a few basic concepts, and then go over the gameplay and scoring of the game.

********** BASIC CONCEPTS **********

SET: Three or four cards of the same rank, for example ♥8♠8♦8 or ♥Q♠Q♦Q♣Q.

RUN: Three or more cards in sequence in the same suit, for example ♥A♥2♥3 or ♣6♣7♣8♣9♣10. Aces are always low, never high, and runs can't wrap around, so Q,K,A,2 would not be a legal run.

MELD: A word for both Sets and Runs. You might for example have three melds, where two af them are sets and one is a run. Each card can only be part of one set or run, for example if you have an 8 you cannot count it both as part of 8,8,8 and 7,8,9.

STOCK: A deck of facedown cards, in the middle of the table. Players draw one card from the stock in every round.

DISCARD PILE: A pile of faceup cards, placed next to the stock. Players discard one card onto the pile in every round.

It works! And it lets you sort your cards manually. Keeps fun statistics. I like the graphics. Thanks!

Game wins 2 out of three games according to scorekeeper with game. In over 200 games I have never been dealt 3 of a kind yet the computer often would knock on the first card drawn. Pass on this one
