Goal

Obtain the fewest points each round.

Set up

Deal six cards face-down to each player and form two rows and three columns.

Game play

Each player flips two of their face-down cards.

The starting player is to the dealer's next player.

One each turn, you may do one of the following:

  • Take the card on the discard pile and replace any card on your board, or
  • Draw a card from the face-down deck and either replace a card on your board or discard the drawn card.

The round ends when someone has six face-up cards in their board. Everyone else gets one more turn, after which they must turn over any remaining face-down cards on their board.

Scoring

Aces are worth one point. Twos are minus two points. 3-10 cards are the face value of the card. Jacks and Queens are ten points. Kings are worth nothing.

Add up all the values of face-up cards. Any column or row having the same cards cancels their scores and becomes zero.

Example

2D 6H 4C

KS 6S KH

The score would be from left to right: -2 + 0 + 4 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 2

The winner of the round has the fewest points.

After the last of the rounds, the player with the fewest cumulative points from previous rounds is the winner.

Variants

Four cards

Play as you would with six-cards, but only reveal the two flipped cards to yourself. When players replace a card on their board with a newly drawn card, they are placed face-down. The round ends when someone closes the round. Everyone else gets one more turn.

Nine cards

Play as you would with six-cards, but reveal three instead of two cards. Any three cards in any direction cancel their score.

Power cards

These are only available when discarding:

  • J - Peek at one of your face-down cards
  • Q - Peek at one of your opponent's face-down cards
  • K - Swap any two cards
