Rules overview:

• The player holding the 3 of diamonds initiates the first move by playing a card or set of cards that include this specific card.
• On each turn, the active player may play any valid card or combination; subsequent players are required to play higher-ranked cards or sets if they choose to continue. If a player opts not to or cannot play higher cards, they may pass. The game concludes when a player has successfully played all their cards.
• The ranking of individual cards is as follows: 2 > A > K > Q > J > 10 > 9 > 8 > 7 > 6 > 5 > 4 > 3. Suits are ordered from Spade (highest), followed by Heart, Diamond, and Club (lowest). When comparing cards of equal rank, suit hierarchy determines superiority.

The game includes various card combinations such as:

• Single: one individual card
• Pair: two cards of identical rank
• Three: three cards of the same rank
• Straight: five consecutive cards in sequence
• Straight flush: five consecutive cards sharing the same suit
• Five of a kind (or special variations): five cards of the same suit but not forming a straight flush (e.g., hearts 2-7-8-J-K)
• Three with a pair: three of a kind combined with an additional pair (e.g., 9-9-9-5-5)
• Four with a single: four cards of the same rank plus one additional card (e.g., 4-4-4-4-K)
• Dragon: a sequence of thirteen cards from Ace through King (A-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-J-Q-K)
