Как играть в Бурако (Open-Dirty)

All players start with 11 cards each. Two piles of 11 cards are left aside on the table called the “stock” (in Portuguese “the dead” or “mortos”). The remaining cards make up the draw deck.

В свою очередь каждый игрок должен:

  1. Взять одну карту из колоды.
  2. …Or pick up all the available cards from the discard pile in the middle of the table.

The player in turn may place cards or melds on the table to score points for their team.

The turn ends when the player discards a card face-up on the discard pile. If you draw a single card from the discard pile, you cannot discard it in the same turn.

Wild cards

Twos and jokers function as wild cards in any combination. In total there are 12 wild cards, counting all twos and jokers. Only one wild card can be used per combination.

A combination can include two twos, as long as one acts as a wild card and the other keeps its natural rank.

When the “2” acts as a wild card in a combination, it can be replaced by the card it substitutes.

The stock (the “dead” pile)

When a player runs out of cards, they must take one of the “stocks” (11 cards each). The following rules must be observed:

Direct “Batida”
The player combines their last card, picks up a stock and continues playing in the same turn.
Not available in this game mode.
Indirect “Batida”
The player discards their last card, picks up a stock and ends their turn.

Each pair can only use one stock during the round.

If there are no cards left in the draw pile, one of the “stocks” will replace it.

Canastas

A “canasta” or run is a combination of at least 7 cards. There are different types of runs:

Чистая канаста
It does not contain a wild card.
Semi-clean run
It contains a wild card. It can be a sequence of at least 7 consecutive cards with a wild card at the beginning or at the end of the combination. It can also be 7 cards of the same rank plus a wild card.
For example, the sequence 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 2 would be a semi-clean run.
Грязная канаста
It contains a wild card.
Королевская канаста
