Declaration Practice: how a round works
Look at the complete hand before deciding. Check whether a complete 13-card hand can satisfy every declaration requirement. Take the next action only when the current step is clear. Before making a move, check the cards in view. Start a 10-question session. Read the visible rule label and wild rank, if shown. Check the relevant controls before continuing.
500 stored and rule-checked questions; ten questions per session. Questions can repeat across sessions. Practice is solo, with no rating, cash reward or account.
Bring this focus to a round
Work at your own pace. All cards need a non-overlapping grouping, at least two sequences and at least one pure sequence. Check the relevant controls before continuing.
Your goal
Check whether a complete 13-card hand can satisfy every declaration requirement. Check the relevant controls before continuing. Take a moment to read the table.
The order of play
- Start a 10-question session. Read the visible rule label and wild rank, if shown.
- All cards need a non-overlapping grouping, at least two sequences and at least one pure sequence.
- Study the complete hand before answering. Choose Valid or Not valid.
- Read the explanation after submitting. Each question accepts one submitted answer.
- Continue to the tenth question for a session score; start another session for a new selection.
Input guidance
Tap the answer buttons or selected card; the deadwood exercise uses a numeric input. Next question appears after an answer. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear. A clear plan starts with the current position.
A useful example
Example hand: Joker J♥ 8♦ 9♦ Q♦ 3♣ Q♥ J♠ 4♣ 5♣ Q♣ J♣ Q♠. Wild rank 12. All thirteen cards can be split into legal non-overlapping melds, including two sequences and a pure sequence. Check the relevant controls before continuing.
A useful caution
A clear plan starts with the current position. Do not judge only the best three cards; every remaining card matters. Check the relevant controls before continuing.
