context_page_description: Rummoli is a family card game for 2 to 8 people. This Canadian board game, first marketed in 1940 by the Copp Clark Publishing Company of Toronto requires a Rummoli board, a deck of playing cards, and chips or coins to play. The game is usually played for fun, or for small stakes. Rummoli is one of the more popular versions of the Stops Group of matching card games, in particular it falls into a subgroup of stops games based on the German Poch and falls into a family of Poch variants such as the French Nain Jaune, the Victorian Pope Joan but most like the American game Tripoley which debuted eight years earlier in Chicago in 1932.
context_section_description: A Rummoli board, used during play, has the shape of an octagon. It is generally simply printed on a large sheet of paper.
  In the centre of the board is a pot called Rummoli, surrounded by eight pots:
  The poker pot
  Ten of spades
  Jack of diamonds
  Queen of clubs
  King of hearts
  Ace of spades
  Ace and King of diamonds
  Sequence 7-8-9 of any suit
  Each of these pots on the board is used to store chips. The ordering of the pots around the board is not important.
