If your partner denies you, you may not go out.
The partnership must have completed 2 dirty books, 2 clean books, and 1 wild book.That player has ‘gone out.’ There are three conditions player’s must satisfy before going out: The play ceases once one player has managed to play both their ‘hand’ and ‘foot’ in totality. Players score points for cards they have melded and also lose points for cards left in hand. This means either player in a partnership may add to any of the melds they both create, unless the meld has reached seven cards. In this variation of Rummy, melds also belong to partners, as opposed to the individual player. The cards are placed face-up on the table in front of the player. Typically, one partner has the completed melds, in addition to red threes, in front of them and the other has the incomplete melds. While teams may have books of the same rank, a new meld cannot be started until the same ranked meld has been completed first. The card on top of the book indicates the kind of meld (discussed below): red card for clean books, black card for dirty books, and a joker for wild books. A seven card meld is called a book or a pile. Books are squared up, unlike a fanned meld still in the process of being added to. A meld is formed with 3 to 7 cards of equal rank. The objective of Hand and Foot is to get rid of all your cards by forming them into melds as in any traditional rummy game. The deal passes left and the game consists of four deals total. Players then pick up their ‘hand.’ The play begins with the ‘hand’ dealer. ‘Foot’ stacks are to be placed around the stock and the discard pile.
The remaining cards are put then in the center of the table and form the stockpile. The top card is also flipped over face-up beside it and starts the discard pile. If the card happens to be a 3 or a Joker (wild card) it is then buried within the stock and a new card is flipped over. The dealer proceeds to deal each player a stack of 13 cards and pass them clockwise until each player has a hand. Then the other partner does the same and deals each player the foot. These two stacks of cards must remain separate. They must shuffle the cards then one person takes the deck. Hand and Foot is typically played as a partner game, partners sit across from each other at the table. The instructions below are best fit for a 4 player game with partners.
