DiScardinr,

One of the outstanding secrets of
success of Canasta is the technique
of proper discardings. If it were
plausible to condense the strategy
of discarding into a phrase 1t would
run something like this: "Plant the
eagle eye on your left hand oppo-
nent. Watch carefully his discards
in order to determine what he wants
and what he doesn't want" Feed
him on a diet of cards, that he
apparently doesn't want. 1t is rea-
sonable for you to assume that he
had no use for the cards he has
thrown away. This advice is not
offered to you as sure cure. You
will occasionally be taken in by
willy opponent. But by and large,
playing the percentages will be
profitable.
In Judging what cards your left
hand opponent needs, you should
be Influenced to a greater degree by
those cards which he has thrown
during the early part of a hand
when no tension was noticeable.
When the discard pile has grown
rich, he is more likely to be trying
to lure you into his parlor, by "fake"
discards. It is not at all uncom-
mon at such time to discard from
three or four Of q kind, retaining
q pair, with which to snatch the
pile II you should throw q card Of
that particular size.
Before either side has made the
initial meld 1t is accepted practice
to pitch low cards. Inasmuch as
they count only points each they
will not be very helpful to the oppo-
sition in making up the count re-
quired for the initial meld. If fol-
lows, therefore, by way of corollary
that aces are not preferred discards
at such time, because If they are
picked up by the enemy, they con-
tribute, substantially, towards max
ing up the required count.
If 1t becomes evident that you are
due for some embarrassment in dis
carding and that sooner or later
you will have to give" bear in mind
that 1t is better to throw dangerous
cards when the discard pile Is not
heavy, retaining those cards which
appear to be safer for that time
when the pile is bulging with gold
and neuroses come into evidence.
The Black Three.
The black 8 comes into its own at
such times. As you are aware the
discard of black 8 forces the next
player to draw from the stock pile
on that particular round and gives
temporary relief. Since these cards
can be great source of comfort
they should not be thrown indis-
criminately. When the discard of
some useless card, which appears to
be reasonably safe, is available to
you, you might as well keep the
black 3 to use in tmie of stress.
But, do not clutter up your hand
with black IS, at the cost of build
ing 1t up In more constructive
manner.
NEEDING On Completed Canastas.
The laws permit the melding Of
extra cards on q completed Canasta.
But except In the act Of going out
such practice Is highly unsound. ALI
one gains by adding such melds is an
addttinoal 10 or 20 points, a negli-
gible quantity. Those cards will be
worth many times this sum, when a
safe discard is needed. Those extra
cards usually offer great safety as
discards and most of the times COM
plete safety. OF course, if you are
about to 60 out, you will obviously
spread these extra cards on the
completed Canasta.
