On Sundays in Tunisia , people usually have the day off from work , I like to spend my Sundays meeting up with my friends , w e gather together to enjoy a cup of coffee and then we play a card game called Rami,
which is very popular in Tunisia, This game is always exciting because we challenge each other to win.
In the end, there are two winners and two losers. It's a fun way for us to relax and have a good time together specially we only meet on the weekend. .
Rami Card Game Rules:
Objective: The goal of Rami is to form sets and runs of cards in your hand to reduce the total points.
Deck: Rami is typically played with two standard decks of 52 cards each, including Jokers.
Dealing: At the start of the game, each player is dealt a set number of cards. The remaining cards form the draw pile.
Gameplay:
Melding: Players can lay down sets (three or four cards of the same rank) or runs (three or more consecutive cards of the same suit).
Laying Off: Players can also add cards to sets or runs that have been laid down by any player.
Drawing: Players start their turn by drawing a card from the draw pile or the discard pile.
Discarding: To end their turn, players must discard a card onto the discard pile.
Going Out: A player can "go out" by getting rid of all their cards by forming valid sets and runs. The remaining players total the points left in their hands.
