● Tong-Its is a game for three players only, using one standard Anglo-American deck of 52 cards (without jokers).
● The cards in each suit rank: Ace 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Jack Queen King.
● An Ace is worth 1 point, Jacks, Queens, and Kings are worth 10 points each, and all other cards count their face value.
● The object of the game is, by drawing and discarding, to form sets and runs, and to minimize the count of unmatched cards remaining in your hand.
● A run consists of three or more consecutive cards of the same suit, such as ❤️4, ❤️5, ❤️6 or 🖤8, 🖤9, 🖤10, 🖤J. (A-K-Q of a suit is not a run since aces are low in this game).
● A card can belong to only one combination at a time - you cannot use the same card as part of both a set and a run.
● The first dealer is chosen randomly. Thereafter the dealer is the winner of the previous hand. The cards are dealt one at a time counterclockwise, starting with the dealer: thirteen cards to the dealer and twelve cards to each of the other players. The remainder of the deck is placed face down to form the stock. The dealer starts the play. The dealer may optionally expose one or more sets or runs face up on the table, thereby opening his or her hand, and must then discard one card face up to the center of the table to start the discard pile. Discarding a card completes the dealer's turn and it is the turn of the next player, the player to the right. Play is counterclockwise.
● 1. Draw
You must begin by taking one card from either the top of the stock or the top card on the discard pile and adding it to your hand. You may only take a card from the discard pile if you are able to create a meld (a set or run) with it, and you are then obliged to expose the meld.
● 2. Exposing Melds
If you have a valid meld or melds (sets or runs) in your hand you can expose any of them on the table in front of you. Melding is optional if a card was taken from the stock; you are not obliged to expose a meld just because you can and note that melds held in hand do not count against you at the end of the play. A player must lay at least one meld on the table for the hand to be considered open. In the special case that you can meld a set of four and you have not drawn from the discard pile to complete the meld, you can lay the set of four down face down. By doing this you can open your hand without losing the bonus payments for a secret set of 4 and without revealing the cards to the other players.
● 3. Laying off (sapaw)
This is also optional. If you wish, you may add cards to sets or runs previously melded by yourself or others. There is no limit to the number of cards a player may lay off in one turn. A player need not have opened their hand to lay off. Laying a card off on another player's exposed meld prevents that player from calling Draw on his or her next turn.
● 4. Discard
At the end of your turn, one card must be discarded from your hand and placed on top of the discard pile face up. You cannot take the top card of the discard pile in order to lay it off on a meld - the discard can only be used to form a set or run along with at least two cards from your hand.
