![]() ![]() When it comes to the well you can either pick up from the face-up cards or pick from the face down but you have to throw out - you can also pick up all the well if you have played your set. The cards score 2=50 A=15 KQJ and 10=10 and all other cards are 5 - A can be used as a 1 or after the K. One the sets are laid down in front of all players, the aim is to get as high a score as possible by making new sets adding to the sets you already have and the sets of the other players - these cards are laid out in front of each player (so they know what cards they have played.) The only cards that cannot be added to sets are the ones replaced by the 2s. ![]() The sets are: 1x3, 2x3, 1x4, 2x4, 1x5, 2x5, 1x5, 2x4, 1x4, 2x3, 1x3 - they can be made up of the same card or a run from a suit - the name Twos refers to the 2s being the joker, which can therefore replace any card or for instance to make a 5 from cards of the same value obviously only 4 in a pack the 2 makes it 5. The aim for each round is to match a set and then to get as many more sets as possible to get the highest score. My family play Twos a lot - so much so that my parents have a running tournament between the 2 of them alternating with Chinese Checkers: It's a version of Rummy each player is dealt 10 cards and the remaining is placed in the centre with the top card in the well face up, or the player to the left of the dealer is dealt 11 cards and throws one card into the well. ![]()
