How to play Big Two
- 1Four players, thirteen cards each. Cards rank from 3 (low) up through K and A to 2 (high). When ranks tie, suits break it: ♦ lowest, then ♣, ♥, and ♠ highest.
- 2You can play a single card, a pair, three of a kind, or a five-card hand. Five-card hands rank: straight, flush, full house, four of a kind (with any fifth card), straight flush. Twos can’t be used in a straight.
- 3Whoever holds the 3♦ leads the first play of each deal, and that play must include it.
- 4Going around, each player must beat the last play with the same number of cards, or pass. Once you pass you sit out until the cards in play are cleared. When everyone else passes, the last player to play leads anything.
- 5The first to empty their hand ends the deal. Everyone else takes a penalty point per card left (doubled with 10 or more, tripled with all 13). When anyone reaches 30, the lowest total wins.
