Point Rummy Rules - How To Play Points Rummy

Points Rummy Rules for Joker Top

• Cards are dealt only once for each points rummy game in the rummy universe.
• The value of points is pre-fixed at the start of the game.
• An amount equivalent to 80 points is brought in by each player.
• Thus, the maximum required amount that the player gets to the table would be three times the point value for that game. For e.g. if players decide Rs.1 as the pre-set value of a point, the amount to get to the table would be 80 (max point) x Rs.1 x 3 times = Rs. 240.
• If the cash balance available in the player’s account is less than the maximum required, i.e. 3 times the point value, then the player will sit on the game table with the closest possible point multiple i.e. either 2x or 1x times the Point value with x being the point value.
• Players who wish to drop out of the game before they play their turn (draw their first card) tend to go out as First Drop with a penalty of 20 points.
• Players who play their first turn or number of turns (draw and discard) and wish to drop out of the game at a stage earlier than the game show is referred to as Middle Drop. Here, the player will get 40 points.
