What are some most common myths about Indian Rummy?
Indian Rummy has been an integral part of Indian culture for centuries, but
despite its being such a popular game, there are quite a few myths about rummy,
usually believed by people who only speculate and haven’t played a single game
of rummy in their lifetime! Here are some most common misconceptions about
rummy:
a. Indian Rummy is illegal. Rummy is not illegal at all as the honorable
Supreme Court of India has clearly stated that rummy is a game of skill and
playing cash rummy online is not
gambling. Indian Rummy
has been declared a game
of skill by the Supreme Court.
b. Players playing against you online are robots. Many people
think that in free online rummy games, there are robots who play against real
players, but it couldn’t be farther from the truth. As there are millions of
players playing online rummy, there’s always a real person available to play
against you online: you always play against real players, not robots.
c. Online rummy is more difficult than offline rummy. Though
online rummy might be a little difficult to understand for people who are not
used to smartphones or computers, even they learn playing the online version of
the game soon and it’s not at all difficult for people who know how to play
offline rummy and how to use smartphones. It’s just like offline rummy and if
anything, the online version is easier than the offline version of the game as
there’s no hassle of holding physical cards in your hand or deciding who will
deal cards. The user-friendly interface and appealing design of online rummy
games enable people to enjoy hassle-free rummy anytime, anywhere.
d. Rummy is a game of luck. It is one of the most common myths.
Rummy is a game of skill, not luck, as it involves adopting strategies and using
your skills. Though you might sometimes be lucky to be playing against a newbie
who makes big mistakes allowing you to win easily, but that’s all there is to
luck in rummy. Practice rummy and improve your skills to win more and big in the
game.
What is the most popular rummy strategy?
Here are some common strategies that help rummy players to become pros in the
game:
a. Discard the high-value cards that are unlikely to be useful for forming
sequences or sets. High-value cards like the Jack, Queen, King and Ace are worth
10 points each. If these cards are ungrouped when your opponent declares their
hand, you’ll lose by a big margin. Discarding useless high-value cards in the
beginning moves minimizes the risk of losing by a big margin.
b. Keep a track of your opponent’s moves to get an idea their cards. Discard
cards that they don’t need and retain those they need.
c. Use the Joker wisely to form a sequence or set. Remember a sequence in which
the Joker replaces any other card is an impure sequence.
What is a rummy table?
A table where the game of rummy is played is called a Rummy table.
What’s the Joker and wild cards?
In rummy, the Joker is a card that can be used as a trump card. It can be used in place of any missing card to form a set or sequence. There are two types of Jokers: printed Jokers and wild cards. While printed Jokers come with a joker’s picture printed on them, wild cards are chosen randomly at the beginning of each game. Wild cards also act as Jokers, so they are a kind of additional Jokers.
What’s draw and discard in rummy?
When a rummy game begins, each player has their cards in their hand, and at the center of the table, there is a stack of cards placed face down (called the closed deck) and a card placed face up (called the open deck or discard pile). Each player picks a cards from the closed deck or open deck on their turn, which is called drawing. Then they get rid of one of their cards by putting it on the open deck, which is called discarding. Thus, to draw is to pick a card and to discard is to get rid of one.
What is sorting of cards?
Your winning or losing a rummy game depends on how you sort your cards and how you play your moves. Sorting of cards is grouping cards in a way that they form sets or sequences or are easier to arrange/use in sets and sequences later. It’s better to sort your cards into three groups of three cards each and a fourth group of four cards arranged in ascending order of their values. For example: Ace-2-3; 4-5-6; 7-8-9; 10-Jack-Queen-King.
What is a drop in rummy?
Every player has the option to choose whether or not they want to play a game/a
particular round in a game before drawing their first card. If they decide not
to play a game/round before drawing their first card, then it is a drop, an
initial drop.
If a player drops out of a 101 Pool game, they get 20 points as a penalty.
The penalty points for dropping out of a 201 Pool game are 25.
A player cannot drop out of a Best of 2 or Best of 3 game.

What is an invalid declaration?
Before a player can be declared the winner of a game, he/she has to declare/show
their hand of cards for validation. This is called showing/declaring. Let’s see
what kind of hands are invalid.
? There should be a minimum of at least two sequences including one pure
sequence and the remaining cards have to be arranged in sets or sequences
? The absence of a pure sequence makes a declaration invalid even if there are
two sequences and all the cards are in sequences and sets.
? Just one sequence is not enough: a valid hand has to have at least two
sequences.
? The presence of more than 4 cards in a set makes the set invalid. Even a wild
card or Joker cannot be added as a fifth card.
? A group of cards with more than one card of the same suit doesn’t form a valid
set
How do we calculate winnings/the winning amount in Pool Rummy?
The following simple formula is used on Junglee Rummy to calculate winnings/the
winning amount in Pool Rummy:
Winnings = (Entry Fee X Number of Players) – Junglee Rummy Fee.
For example, if there are 6 players at a Pool Rummy table and the entry fee is
Rs. 50 per player, the prize pool will be Rs. 300. The winner will win the Pool
Prize of Rs. 300 and the amount will be credited to the winner’s account after
the deduction of the Junglee Rummy Fee.
How do we calculate winnings in Deals Rummy?
Only one winner gets all the chips at the end of each deal in Deals Rummy. The
winner gets chips equal to the points lost by the losing player.
Winnings = Sum of the points of all the opponents (considering each chip equal
to one point).
For example, 2 players play a Deals Rummy game and one of them loses by 50
points. The winner will get 50 chips.
How do we deal/distribute cards in Rummy?
Rummy is a game of skill. It requires patience, focus and strategies for one to succeed. Indian Rummy is played by 2 to 6 players and 13 cards are dealt to each player by the dealer, who is decided by making a toss. One by one, clockwise, each player gets to deal cards in subsequent games. However, in online rummy you don’t have to bother about that as cards are dealt, absolutely randomly, by the game program automatically, which also does away with any possibility of unfair dealing.
What are some probabilities in the card game of Rummy?
Though playing rummy is fun, it requires smart thinking, and those who like to
play with numbers can master the game easily. Practice estimation in rummy to
learn the concept of probability and become a pro in the game. Some very basic
probabilities in rummy are as follows:
1. Keep an eye on your opponent’s moves and estimate the probabilities of Jokers
being in their hand by analyzing how many Jokers you and the discard section
have. As you practice this, it’ll become easier for you to estimate the
probability of cards.
2. Understand the probability of a card being useful in forming a sequence/set
by observing how many cards close to that card have been discarded and whether
your opponent has picked any cards close to the card in value.
3. You can also figure out the probability of cards of a particular color by
analyzing what color cards your opponents is mostly discarding.
4. Similarly, if your opponent picks two or more cards of the same value but
different suits, they are definitely going for a set of the cards of that value.
5. Lastly, and most importantly, watching the discard section closely will give
you a fairly good idea of the cards that might be in the deck and with your
opponent.
What is a Deal Show in Rummy?
If a player declares his/her hand before the opponent gets his/her his first
turn, it is called a Deal Show in rummy. Here’s how points as calculated in case
of a Deal Show:
1. The losing player gets half his/her total points. For example, if the total
value of the losing player’s cards is 30, then he gets 15 points.
2. The minimum points that the losing player can get are 2.
3. The losing player can get maximum 40 points (if the total value of his/her
cards is 80 or more).
When can we Call Rummy to get the pile?
According to card game books, calling Rummy is not necessary. But if a player leaves the discard pile in a state where it has cards that form a meld without needing any cards from any other player's hand, then before the next player picks a card, any player other than the one who just discarded a card can call Rummy and take the discard pile up to the last card in the meld formed. This player then discards one card and then the player to his/her left get their turns one by one clockwise.
