Knocking on Card games Gin Rummy

If, after drawing a card, you can form a sufficient number of your cards into valid combination: sets and runs, you can end the play Rummy at your turn. To do this, you discard one card (face down) and turn your entire hand over, combining your cards into as many sets (equal value cards) and runs (card sequences) as you can. Card Rummy games in your hand that are still left but can not be used in a combination are called deadwood. The maximum value of your deadwood can not exceed 10. Nowadays it is usual just to discard face down instead of ending the play known as knocking. When a player can knock without holding any unmatched cards, that is called “going gin,” and a special bonus is awarded.

Any player who holds fewer than ten points in unmatched cards can choose to knock during any turn – even the first. If a Card games player is eligible to knock, it is not required; the player can opt to keep on playing to try to reach a higher score.
