My melded cards cn be laying off for what Posted by Skunker55 (VIP) Jul 26 2026 6:18AM I noticed I could lay off cards from my hand that had being melted, into the knocking players melds. Is this right? what purpose would that serve at all? or does it increase my deadwood? why lay-off cards onto knockerâs nelds Posted by webmaster (moderator) Jul 26 2026 7:01AM The knocker's opponent has the privilege of âlaying offâ any cards of his own deadwood that may be matched with any of the knockerâs melds in order to reduce the penalty value of his deadwood. This privilege does not apply if the knocker has a gin hand with no deadwood. When both players' cards are shown, the opponent of the knocker can lay-off or attach his own deadwood cards to opponent's melds by dragging the cards towards opponent's meld. If a knocking (ginning) player has a gin hand, still the same 'Knock' button has to be pressed and the extra 11-th card has to be discarded. The system will determine automatically whether it was a gin hand or not. If the knocker has the lower count of deadwood, he scores the the difference between their values of deadwood. For gin, the knocker adds a 25 point bonus. |
