rank (for an example 8-S, 8-H, 8-D) or a run of three or more cards of consecutive rank in

the same suit (for an example 4-H,5-H,6-H) and the rest of cards are called Deadwood.

In each hand of the game there are two stages for each player. Each player starts his turn

when the second player ends his turn. The first stage takes place when the player takes card

from the Stock or Discard pile of cards (So holding 11 cards) and in the second stage the player

discard a card to Discard pile. The player may end the current hand only when he discard a card.
