The goal of Tien Len is to be the first to get rid off all of the cards in your hand. Tien Len is played with a standard 52-card deck with all players starting with 13 cards. Here is the ranking of card values (highest to lowest) : 2, Ace, King, Queen, Jack, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3. Here is the ranking of suits (highest to lowest): Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs, Spades. Here are the card combinations that a player may do:

     - Single Card
     - Pair
     - Triple
     - Four of a kind
     - Straight of 3+ cards of consecutive values, not including 2 (ex. 10JQ)
     - Double straights of 3+ pairs of consecutive values (ex. 334455)

A player can play bombs to beat winning 2s. Here are the bomb combinations:

     - Four of a kind beats a single 2.
     - 3 card double straight (ex. 334455) beats a single 2.
     - 4 card double straight (ex. 33445566) beats a pair of 2s.
