Building: A player may build a combination on a middle pile by adding one of the cards from his hand, if he has the card that the new combination will add up to.For example, if a player has a 9 and the board shows a 5, 4 and 9, then he may take the combination (5 and 4) and the pair (9) at once. Capturing cards by pairing and combining: A player can execute the above two moves simultaneously if the middle cards support the maneuver.
For instance, a player with an 8 could capture a 6 and 2. Capturing cards by combining: A player can capture numerical cards (Ace to 10 - not face cards) in combination if the value of the cards adds up to the value of a card in the player’s hand.The player places his card down and then collects the matching pair for counting at the end of the game. Capturing a card by pairing: A card from the player’s hand matches the rank (number) of a face-up card in the middle.
