It is not common for online
casino card games to showcase variants that require (or allow) cards to be
switched with another card face up or face down. Most games only need comparing
or beating of cards. However, card exchange games are not necessarily absent in
the gaming arsenal. In fact, they are favored by some punters for the thrill
that they are able to produce. Most of these games are classified under the
“Rummy” category.
Card exchanges happen when
players feel the need to switch one of their cards with another in order to
come up with a better hand. In the Rummy group of card games, drawing and
discarding of cards are common. Generally
speaking, the main goal is to improve players’ hand by forming it into sets of
cards that belong to the same rank or sequences in a suit. The basic move is to
draw one or more cards from an “undealt” stock or from a pile of discarded
cards (face-up).
In a more conventional sense (and
possibly outside the electronic gaming arena), card exchanges are carried out
by passing cards to or taking cards from the players’ neighbors. In some group
games, a common pool of cards is set on a table and at the player’s turn, he or
she may choose to exchange at least one card with that pool.
Rummy games are generally
considered Chinese in origin. Although they are now very accessible and played
in almost every corner of the world, games of their kind were virtually unknown
in the West until the twentieth century.
