Game Rules

6-Card Golf

Build a tableau without high cards.

Players: 2-4.
Use both jokers.

Setup a Round:

  • Deal each player six cards facedown.
    • Arrange your cards in a 3x2 grid: 3 columns, 2 rows
    • Flip two of your cards
  • Flip one card to start the communal discard.

Each Turn:

  1. Draw a card from the deck or from the discard pile.
  2. Either:
    • Discard that card, or
    • Replace one of your cards.
      • The replacement is played face-up.
      • The old card goes to the discard face-up.

End-of-round Scoring:

The round ends if any player has all cards face-up.

  • Pip cards score face value
  • Kings: 0 points
  • Queens or Jacks: +10 points
  • Jokers: -2 points
  • If two cards in a column have the same rank, they both score 0 points instead.
