💡 Scoring Tips
🃏 Gin Rummy Deadwood Rule: To knock, your unmatched (deadwood) cards must total 10 points or less. Only face cards and number cards count at their pip value; Aces are always 1 point. Always count J, Q, K as exactly 10 each.
🇮🇳 Indian Rummy Declaration: A valid declaration requires at least 2 sequences (runs), one of which must be a pure sequence (no Jokers). Face cards (J, Q, K) and Aces each count as 10 points in the loser's deadwood total.
