Oklahoma Gin
Oklahoma Gin is much closer to standard gin
rummy than Kalooki. It uses the standard deck, and is limited to two
players.
The biggest difference is “knocking.” When the first
card is turned over after dealing, the point value on that card is the
“knock” value – so 10 or face card is 10 points, A is 1 point. Turns
contain only a draw and a discard – no laying down cards.
When a
player has runs in his hand that, if laid down, leave card points equal
to or below the knock points, he can knock. Knocking is when each player
puts down all his runs and the hand ends.
A couple more things
happen in the knock. First, each player is allowed to add cards to the
other player's runs. But, if the knocker “goes gin” and puts down all
the cards in his hand as runs, the other player is not allowed to play
on his runs, and is stuck with those points. Moreover, the player who
went gin gets 20 bonus points, and the opponent gets to score no points
at all.
Second, points are determined by the difference between
the opponent's cards and the player's cards. If the player, at the end
of all the card play, has a higher point value than his opponent, he
loses that difference to the opponent. If he has a lower value, he is
awarded the point difference.
Game play then continues with a new
hand, and play goes on until one player reaches 100 points.
