BIG BAD WOLF PICK UP


<center><h1>BIG BAD WOLF PU</h1>

<h2>Tables Set Draw 2, 2 Can Out, allow PU, allow wilds, No Timer, disable bots, points 5000<br><br>

In this game only ONE person is allowed to take the pile in each hand. <br><br>

The BIG BAD WOLF. If you are the first person to take the pile you are the BIG BAD WOLF.<br><br>
You are the only one who can take the pile during that hand. Your opponent may NOT take the pile. <br><br>

As the BIG BAD WOLF you must make RED Canastas only. The BIG BAD WOLF may not make any black Canastas. <br><br>

Your opponent may make black canastas. Or RED if he chooses. Your opponent can make any kind of Canastas. The BIG BAD WOLF can only make RED. <br><br>

The scoring will even out. Being the BIG BAD WOLF is sometimes just as "BAD" as it is "GOOD".<br><br>

You may meld any time, you may go out any time. <br><br>

NOTE: You may NOT put up any Canastas until you have a BIG BAD WOLF. <br><br>
The reason being, if a black canasta were to go up first, and then that person later became the BIG BAD WOLF, he would have to be disqualified, because the BIG BAD WOLF can only make RED Canastas. <br><br>
So don?t put any Canastas up until there is a BIG BAD WOLF. <br><br>

CRAZY RED 3'S PICK UP

 

<center><h1>CRAZY RED 3'S PU</h1>

<h2>Tables Set Draw 2, 2 Can Out, allow PU, allow wilds, No Timer, disable bots, points 5000<br><br>

The REASON you set the table for 2-2-1 in this game, is you COULD end up only drawing ONE Red 3. <br><br>

This is a hard game but a fun one because you are at the "Dealers Mercy". <br><br>

You MUST WAIT until ALL the Red 3's are out BEFORE you are allowed to put up Canasta's. <br><br>

You can have Canasta's in your hand and be READY to go but you CANNOT put a Canasta up until ALL the Red 3's are out. <br><br>

After ALL the Red 3's are out you may put your Canasta's up, but you need a MINIMUM number of Canasta's equal to the amount of Red 3's that you have drawn to go out. <br><br>

So if the Dealer only gave you ONE Red 3, and your opponent got THREE Red 3s, you only NEED a MINIMUM of ONE CANASTA to go out, HE needs a MINIMUM of THREE CANASTA'S to go out. <br><br>

If you drew 2 Red 3's and your opponent got the other 2 Red 3s, you both need a MINIMUM of 2 Canasta's to go out. <br><br>

You may put up as many Canasta's as you wish once ALL the Red 3333's are out. <br><br>

Red Canasta's or Black Canasta's are fine. If you get all 4 Red 3's you lose the game. <br><br>

If the last Red 3 is the LAST CARD in the deck, NO ONE gets to put Canasta's up. <br><br>

Meld what you have and SLAP THE DEALER!! <br><br>

REMEMBER: YOU MAY PICK UP THE PILE. </h2>

Aces go to the FIRST person to meld them. <br><br>

You may meld ANY cards at ANY time but you may ONLY put up Canasta's according to your SEAT COLOR. Red is Odd. Blue is Even. <br><br>

For example RED SEATS may meld odd and even cards to the table but may only put ODD cards into Canasta's. <br><br>

The same applies to the BLUE SEATS but in reverse. </h2>

 

OVER THE HILL PICK UP

 

<center><h1>OVER THE HILL PU</h1>

<h2>Tables Set Draw 2, 2 Can Out, allow PU, allow wilds, No Timer, disable bots, points 5000<br><br>

You are considered "OVER THE HILL" at 30 and so is the PILE in this game. <br><br>

No one may pick up the pile UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES until there are 30 OR LESS cards left in the Draw Pile. <br><br>

When the computer says "30 Cards in the Draw Pile" it's up for grabs. <br><br>

By ANYONE. 30 cards or less. <br><br>

You may MELD at any time but you may NOT take the pile until it says "30 cards in Draw Pile" Toss your junk cards because it is basically frozen until it hits 30. <br><br>

No one can take it. <br><br>

Don't waste your wilds because it?s frozen until it hits 30. </h2>

 

PMS PICK UP

 

<center><h1>PMS PICK UP</h1>

<h2>Tables Set Draw 2, 2 Can Out, allow PU, allow wilds, No Timer, disable bots, points 5000<br><br>

In this game you may only make RED Canasta's.  <br><br>

No BLACK Canasta's allowed. <br><br> 

If you make a BLACK Canasta,  you are DQ-ed. <br><br>

MELD any time. <br><br>

OUT any time. <br><br>

TAKE the pile. <br><br>

Remember...If you add a wild card to a RED CANASTA it will become a BLACK CANASTA and it will be considered a DQ.<br><br>

Remember...PMS=RED Canasta's only!</h2>

 

POPSICKLE PICK UP

 

<center><h1>POPSICKLE PU</h1>

<h2>Tables Set Draw 2, 2 Can Out, allow PU, allow wilds, No Timer, disable bots, points 5000<br><br>

DO NOT touch the pile unless it is FROZEN. <br><br>

A WILD or a 2 FREEZES a pile, a black 3 DOES NOT. <br><br>

A RED 3 at the beginning of a game FREEZES the pile. <br><br>

So the idea in this game is to keep throwing away all your discards because no one can pick up the pile until it is FROZEN.  <br><br>

Once someone FREEZES it, you may then pick up the pile as in regular Canasta. <br><br>

If the pile ISN'T FROZEN DON'T pick it up. </h2>

<h2> Tables Set Draw 2, 2 Can Out, allow PU, allow wilds, No Timer, disable bots, points 5000 <br><br>

You CANNOT pick up the pile unless you are LOSING according to the SCORE BOX. <br><br>

All games start with a 0-0 score, right? <br><br>

Ok, 0-0 is a TIE. In case of a TIE, the pile is FREE  to anyone. <br><br>

The FIRST hand is considered a TIE (score box shows 0-0) so the FIRST pile in round one is "Up For Grabs"!!  Go for it! <br><br>

After that, only the person with the LOW SCORE may pick up the pile. <br><br>

You must have the LOWEST score in the SCORE BOX to pick up the pile. <br><br>

If you pick up the pile when the score box shows you in the LEAD, you are DQ-ed. SORRRRRY! <br><br>

If at any time during the game, the scores show a TIE, the pile is up for grabs! </h2>

 

SPADES ARE WILD PICK UP

 

<center><h1>SPADES ARE WILD PU</h1>

<h2> Tables Set Draw 2, 2 Can Out, allow PU, allow wilds, No Timer, disable bots, points 5000 <br><br>

All SPADES are like Black 3's. <br><br>

If there is a SPADE on TOP OF THE PILE you CANNOT pick it up. <br><br>

You CANNOT pick up the pile on a SPADE ever. <br><br>

The trick is to toss all your "junk cards" and then the Black 3's and then toss the SPADES as wilds. <br><br>
