What are the rules of Pusoy Dos?

How to Play Pusoy Dos

Split the cards evenly between four players. Split the cards evenly so that each player receives 13 cards. If you are playing with less than four people, deal either 39 or 51 cards depending on how long you want the game to be. If you deal 39, each player should get 13 cards. If you deal 51, each player should get 17 cards.

Have the person with the lowest ranking card deal that card. The person who has the 3 of clubs (or the next lowest ranking card) starts the game by dealing that card or a valid card combination that includes that card. Place the card in the center of the table facing up.

Rotate between players and deal cards until someone runs out. Once the first player has dealt their card or card combination, rotate clockwise to the next person. They must play a card or combination of higher value than the previous play. If the last player only played a single card, play a single card or combination. If they played a combination, you must play a combination using the same number of cards. The first person to empty their hand wins.

Keep track of how many wins each player has, the one with the most wins. Since pusoy dos is a fast-paced game, you will likely rack up wins quickly. Each time someone runs out of cards, record that as a win. Once you get tired or have reached an agreed upon number of turns, tally up how many wins each player has. The player who has the most amount wins. Alternatively, play until only one player has cards left.

What are the combinations in pusoy dos?

A single is one card. A single is as it sounds, a single card. This is the most common play in pusoy dos, but it is also the lowest ranking. If two players play a card of the same rank, the one with the higher suit wins. For example, if two players played 5s but one had clubs and the other had hearts, the person who played Hearts would win. Strategy: Don’t immediately play your highest ranking card. Instead, wait until someone plays a high card close to yours, then play your card. Strategy: If your card is a 2, ace, or king with a high suit, play it against a card of the same number with a lower suit.

A pair is any two cards that have the same rank. The pair combination refers to any two cards with the same rank. For example, to get rid of two cards that are both 8, play them as a pair. The card with the higher suit is ranked. So, if you played two 6s, one being a 6 of diamonds, against an 4 of clubs, you would be able to get rid of both cards. Strategy: If you have a pair of cards, wait for the game to progress a few turns before using them if you can. That way, you’ll surprise players and shed your cards quickly in competitive moments.

A triple (also known as three-of-a-kind) refers to three cards of equal rank. A triple combination, which is also called a three-of-a-kind, is when you have three cards that are all of equal rank. For example, if you have three 5s you have a triple, no matter what the suit is. Strategy:Clear out any triples early to slim down your deck and get a head start. If two triples are going against each other, the one with the higher suit wins.

There are different types of five-card combinations to choose from. There are five different combinations for a five-card hand, with each having a different rank. Royal Flush is the highest rank, followed by Straight Flush, then Four-of-a-kind, then Full House and Flush with a Straight being the lowest. Royal Flush: A royal flush consists of the highest ranking cards in consecutive order. For example, a play containing an Ace, King, Queen, Jack, and Ten in that order is considered a royal flush. Straight Flush: A straight flush is any five consecutive cards with the same suit. For example, if you get 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 all diamonds, that’s a straight flush. Four-of-a-kind: A four-of-a-kind (also known as quads) consists of four equal-ranking cards and any extra card to complete the hand.They are ranked based on the number of the cards. For example, Four kings beat four jacks. Full House: A full-house is made up of three cards with equal rank and a pair of cards with equal rank. They are ranked based on the rank of the three cards. For example, three aces with two kings beats three kings with two aces. Flush: A flush has five cards with the same suit, but not a consecutive rank. They have a two-part ranking system. The first rank is based on the suit and the second is based on the number. For example, a diamond flush with a queen beats a diamond flush that has 8 as its highest card. Straight: Straights are made up of consecutive ranked cards that aren’t the same suit. Their rank is based on their highest card. For example, a King-high straight (K, Q, J, 10, 9) would beat a 10-high straight (10, 9, 8, 7, 6).
