If two cards in the same column form a matching pair of the same value, the point total for that column is 0. Points are tallied based the type of cards and their arrangement in the columns. The top card then forms the new upright pile. If the game is still going and the downturn deck runs out, the upright pile is shuffled to form a new downturn deck. After the round has ended, all downturn cards are flipped over. Once a player turns all of their cards upright, they are out and every other player has one more turn in the round. The card replaced will then be turned upright if it isn’t already and placed in the upright pile. If they want to keep the card drawn, the card will take the place of any card in in their 3x2 grid. On their turn, players decide to either draw from the downturn deck in the middle of the group or from the upturn pile. On the first turn of every player, two of their cards are turned upright. Play begins with the player left of the dealer and proceeds clockwise. Without looking at their hand, players arrange their cards in a 3x2 grid. The top card is then drawn face up and placed next to the deck. The remaining cards are placed in the center of the table. The dealer shuffles the deck and passes out 6 cards faced down to each player in a clockwise fashion. The player with the lowest card becomes the dealer. Each player draws one card from a shuffled deck.
