Players look at their cards.
If a player has 4 cards of equal value, proceed to Step 4 below. Otherwise, each player chooses a card to discard and passes it, facedown, to the player on the left. Each player picks up the new card and chooses a card to pass to the next player. The passing of the cards should proceed as quickly as possible. As soon as a player has 4 cards of equal value, the player places the cards face up on the table and grabs a spoon.
