In Solitaire 13, your goal is to eliminate all of the cards from the pyramid by finding pairs of cards that add up to 13. Figuring this out with the numbered cards is pretty easy (get a calculator, amiright?), but the lettered cards can be trickier. Starting from the top: Kings are worth 13 on their own, so they can be discarded singly. In some variations of this game, in fact, Kings aren’t even used.

THREE-THIRTEEN RUMMY GAMEPLAY
Starting to the left of the dealer, each player draws a card from the stock pile or the discard. If they do not go out (described below), then they discard a single card to the discard pile. Play moves to the left or clockwise.
GOING OUT
During your turn, you may go out if after drawing you are able to form all your cards into sets, with one card left to discard. When a player goes out, they announce it before playing their sets and discarding. All other players have 1 more turn before the round is completed and scoring begins.
There are two kinds of combinations:
- A set of 3+ cards of the same rank. For example, 6-6-6
- A run of 3+ cards of the same suit. For example, 3-4-5-6 of diamonds.
Combinations can have more than three cards BUT a card is only valid in a single combination. You cannot add your cards to other players sets or runs.
WILD CARDS
Each round has a different wild card, these cards can be substituted for any other card in a run or set in order to complete it. In order for a set or run to be valid though, at least one none wild card must be played.
