Players Can Cover up the 3s Shown Above
Players will look for 2 or more cards on the table with the same value. When a player sees a pair (or a trio or, rarely, a quadruplet), he will place one card from his deck over each of the pair, potentially creating new pairs. As a new pair is spotted, each player will race to beat the other player at covering it up.
If players pick out the same matching cards, one player may cover 1 card while the other player covers its match.
Play continues until one player has no cards left, becoming the winner.
If player comes to a halt because there are no matches showing, each player will deal out another row of 4 cards, face up on the table, while adding the cards on their side of the table to their hands.
To play with more than 2 people, deal the deck evenly among all players. 3 players will form a triangle with 3 sets of 4 cards; 4 players would form a square so on and so forth.
