			Any cards you play can (and probably will) be used against you. Inexperienced players are often so preoccupied with whether or not they ''can'' play a card, they don’t stop to think if they ''should'' play it.

			Sometimes it can be beneficial to intentionally take the 3-card penalty. There are at least two reasons why you might want this:

			* To deplete the deck and end the game in a tie.

			It is sometimes possible to "trap" an opponent's card. For example, suppose you have {{heart\|=Q}}{{heart\|=Q}}{{club\|=K}}{{club\|=K}}{{diamond\|=K}}{{diamond\|=K}}{{spade\|=K}}{{spade\|=K}} in your hand, but you don't have {{heart\|=K}}. Any run that includes {{heart\|=K}} would require a {{heart\|=Q}}, and any set that includes {{heart\|=K}} would require another king. So if your opponent has one of the two {{heart\|=K}}, they can never play it, so they can never win! (but they can still tie)
