For Indian players new to MPL Rummy, understanding the rules is the first step towards mastering the game. MPL Rummy is played with two decks of cards, including Jokers. The primary objective is to form valid sets and sequences from the dealt cards. A sequence is a group of three or more consecutive cards of the same suit, while a set consists of three or more cards of the same rank but different suits. Importantly, players must form at least one pure sequence, which is a sequence without any Joker. The game starts with each player being dealt 13 cards, and the remaining cards form the draw pile. Players take turns drawing and discarding cards, aiming to complete their sequences and sets before their opponents. Jokers can be used as substitutes for any card to form sets and sequences, but they cannot be used in a pure sequence. The game ends when a player declares by forming the required sets and sequences and discarding the final card. Points are calculated based on the ungrouped cards in each player’s hand, with lower points being better. Understanding these basic rules and practicing regularly can help beginners quickly get the hang of MPL Rummy and start enjoying the game.
