17:T463,Thousands is one of the most popular card games. You start each round with 13 cards and make sets of at least 3 cards. The sets have the same color (spades, clubs, hearts or diamonds) and are increasing in value. Or they all have the same value (2 to 10, jack, queen, king or ace). The joker may be used to replace any value. The ace counts as a 1 or as a card after the king. At the start of your turn, you take 1 card or the pile of discarded cards. You can take the stack if you can connect at least 2 of the cards in your hand. Then you make sets and put one card on the pile. The queen of spades is important in the game. This counts for 100 points and cannot be discarded as the last card. You can only place these on the table as a set. Once you have laid out all the cards, the scores are added up: what is on the table minus those of the cards you still have in your hand. Once one of the players has 1000 points or more at the end of a round, they have won the game. The scoring is as follows: 1 to 9: 5 points 10, jack, queen, king: 10 points Ace: 20 points Joker: 25 points Queen of spades: 100 points18:T493,Thousands is one of the most popular card games.
