Kalooki Strategy - how to play Kalooki 40

As part of my basic rules section, I thought it would be useful to include some sort of interactive tutorial.

Fortunately, Rummy Royal have already produced one!

Just click on the image to the right and you'll launch a Kalooki 40 tutorial.

Kalooki 40 strategy

As far as strategy is concerned, you must remember two major differences between 'normal' Kalooki 51 and Kalooki 40:

1. Your initial meld only has to reach a score of 40 and

2. If you draw from the discard pile, you must then lay down a meld.

Other than that, the same basic rules apply.
