Players each choose 1 stick from the bag & place it so they can see it but opponents cannot. Each player is dealt 15 cards. Place the rest of the cards face down to make a draw deck. Top card is flipped face up to form a discard pile. On each player's turn, they choose 1 card from the top of the draw deck or the top card from the discard deck.Once a player has all the cards required for the stick, they must lay the cards down & turn the stick over for everyone to see.After you have placed down, you can play cards on other player’s laid down cards, add to sets or runs, or start new sets or runs with a minimum of 3 cards. Sets can be continued, but you cannot pick up the wilds out of a set.

Any player who hasn't turned over their stick gets to try the same stick again. If a player cannot turn their stick over in 3 hands, return it to the bag & pick a new stick.
