OVERVIEW OF CUAJO

Cuajo is a rummy like game, for 4 players. The players split into two partnerships with partners sitting across from each other. The goal of the game is to curate your hand so that every card in it belongs to a valid combination. In doing so you will win the game (or round if multiple games are played). 

The game is played with payouts as well. Small payouts will be made to players who complete certain objectives during the game and to the overall winner of a round. 

SETUP

The first dealer is random and then the winner of the previous game will deal for the next. The dealer will shuffle the deck and have the player to their left cut the deck. Then anticlockwise from themselves they will deal each player a hand of 15 cards and deal themselves an extra one giving the dealer 16 cards in total. 

After hands are dealt, the next card is turned faceup on the table. This is called the sowee and does not affect the game but affects the scoring. The remaining cards are placed facedown onto the table as a stockpile. then the dealer will look at their hand and will discard any card, except a king, from their hand to begin the discard pile. the game can begin now that all players have a hand of 15 cards. 

Card Rankings and Combinations

The deck of 112 cards in already nontraditional for most card game players. It includes 4 suits (cups, coins, batons, and swords), and seven card faces, of Ace, 3, 4, 5, Jack, Horse, and King. There are 4 of each face card in each suit. So, there will be four 7s of swords and four horses of batons in the deck. The ranking follows the order as described above with Ace being low and King high. 

During the game, your goal will be to compile all cards from your hand into valid combinations. A card cannot belong to more than one combination, and four types of combinations can be made.  우리카지노

 There can be sets of three or four cards that have the same rank and to different suits. 

Two sequences are made of 3 cards each. The 3,4,5 and the Jack, horse, king. These must be of the same suit to count as a valid sequence. These are also the only sequences that are valid. 

Another combination is to have a set of 4 identical cards of the same rank and suit. This is also called a secret in this game. 

Finally, a single king is also a valid combination. This does not stop them from being parts of other combinations this just means any number of kings in your final hand is a valid combination on its own. 

GAMEPLAY

The player to the dealer’s right starts the game and continues from them anticlockwise. On a player’s turn, they will be able to draw either the last discarded card (for the first player this would be the dealer’s discarded card) or the top card of the stockpile. You then will discard any card from your hand except a king to the discard pile and pass your turn. 

There are two special mechanics during the game called Secrets and Purro that change the course of a turn. 

Secret

For a secret, a player must have 4 identical cards in their hand. They may choose to place them facedown in front themselves before discarding. Each player, except your partner, must then pay you a payout (usually 50 cents) for this secret. These cards are now committed to this combination; they cannot be discarded or used in any other combinations for this game.

 You can also make a secret using the sowee. The three identical cards plus a random card will be placed facedown. The random card will n
