Play
The black cards are positive numbers and the red cards are negative numbers. Ace is one. Each player is dealt 2 cards. Each player chooses whether to accept a third card from the dealer. The object is to make the total of the cards in your hand as close to zero as possible. The hand shown on the right is +7.
Each round the winner scores zero and losing players score the difference of their hand from zero. The pictured hand would score 7 points.
Play continues until one player reaches 50 points. The winner is the player with the least points.
