As soon as someone runs out of cards the play ends and the other players pay the winner one stake for each card they have left in their hands at this time. The person with the 3 must begin with a combination that includes that card. Straights run from three up to ace only. The special combinations that beat twos are called slams . As in other versions, a slam can be beaten by a higher slam of the same type.
Some people play the game with trading .
After the cards are dealt, but before the first lead, any player can trade one or more cards with another player for an equal number of cards. If you play with trading, four twos do not automatically win the game.
