Conquian
The old Mexican rummy for two. You never draw: take each card on offer only by melding it, and be first with eleven cards down. 2 players.
How to play Conquian
- 1A game for two with a 40-card deck: ace to 7 plus jack, queen and king in each suit, with no 8s, 9s or 10s. Each player gets ten cards and the rest form the stock.
- 2Melds are three or four cards of one rank, or three or more in a row in one suit. With no 8s, 9s or 10s, the 7 runs straight into the jack (6-7-J-Q). Aces are low only.
- 3You never draw a card into your hand. Instead a card is offered: the first player turns up the top of the stock. You may take it only by melding it straight away, with cards from your hand or added to one of your own melds. If you pass, your opponent may take it; if they pass too, it is dead, and they turn up the next card.
- 4Once you take a card, you may lay down more melds or add cards to your own melds, then you discard one card. Your discard is offered to your opponent; if they pass it, it is dead and they turn up a card from the stock.
- 5To win the hand, have 11 cards melded: your ten plus the card you just took, with nothing left to discard. If the stock runs out first, nobody wins the hand.
- 6The first player to win 3 hands wins the game.
