Sneak-Peek into the Secrets of Online Rummy

2. Online rummy in India has grown to become an increasingly popular source of entertainment and is played by almost everyone. I remember getting all excited to play the game from a very young age with friends and neighbours. In our neighbourhood, there was a guy who was really skilful in most card games. It was a rare chance that someone would be able to defeat him in any game. Playing rummy with him was like eating sour grapes. Just last week, I stumbled upon him on the street, and we sat down to catch up on our lives with a quick cup of coffee. The topic of rummy bought back old memories, and I proudly told him how I had improved my game by learning through online rummy sites. To test my improved skills, he challenged me to a game, which unfortunately I lost to him again. But the best part was that he commended me on my improved skills and shared a few other tips which are not commonly known. I have shared these tips here to help all those passionate rummy players who love to improve their game constantly.

3. Unlearning Common Strategies • Whenever new players begin playing online rummy, they learn the common tips and tricks used by other players for winning the game. But one characteristic that distinguishes experts from beginners is the way they implement these rummy tricks. A professional player moulds these common tricks into useful strategies according to different game situations. To be an expert, you must unlearn the typical tricks and use reverse psychology to defeat your opponent(s). For example, a common notion is to drop high-value cards first. If your opponent is using this trick, you can instead use them to your best advantage and form valid melds. “If you have two connected high-value cards, do not discard them immediately. Instead, these can be the perfect choice to make a valid meld. It is so because your opponents would already be discarding high-value cards,” was the first advice I received from my neighbour.

4. Improvisation It is always better to craft your strategies right in the beginning, but a rummy pro knows the value of timely improvisation. “You must observe your opponent’s gameplay and be able to alter your pre-planned strategies accordingly within seconds,” were the exact words of my friend. Applying the same strategies with each player might not work well with everyone. A player must constantly devise new strategies to boost his/her winning probability.

5. Dropping the Game A well-practised rummy player knows how to make the best use of the drop option. “You must drop the game only after considering all possibilities, not when you feel like it. Repeatedly dropping the game not only makes you lose interest, but you also miss out on the chance to sharpen your skills.” This was what he suggested when I mentioned the Drop option. A player needs to be well-versed with different rummy tricks so that he/she can choose wisely what hand to play and which one to drop.

6. Balancing the Cards Well Another secret that professional rummy players keep from novices is how to manage their cards well. “You must always have a balanced hand. Too many red cards or black cards diminish your chances of winning the game. Keeping cards of the same colour may not only make winning difficult but also reveal your cards to the opponent(s) easily.” Other than keeping a balanced hand, one must arrange their cards in alternates of red and black suits to make identification easier. Also, keep calculating your total points after every discard so that you can make appropriate melds for winning the game.

7. Play Decisively Without Losing Patience Rummy is a game of skill and should be played without involving your mood temperaments. “You can play rummy to divert attention from a stressing situation, but make sure to play the game with complete concentration without involving your emotions.” Efficient rummy players avoid playing the game for revenge or when they are having mental conflicts as it impacts their decision-making power. A true rummy lover would never sabotage his game by letting emotions affect his gameplay. Instead, he would refresh his mind and play the game with a calculative approach.

8. To Sum Up The above tips not only perked up my interest in the game, but these tricks have helped me a lot in improving my gameplay.
