5 Tricks to win the next 13-card rummy game you play:

1. Keep a close watch on your opponent:
Make sure you observe what your opponent picks and discards from the table. This will give you an idea of the cards they have in their hand. Based on this judgement, you can decide which card to keep or discard. Note that rummy is not all about forming a sequence, but also keeping a watch on your opponent’s move. 

2. Keep cards that form a sequence with multiple cards:
Ensure you keep cards that form a sequence with multiple cards. For example, one can use 6 with 4 and 5 of the same suit. Also, one can use the same card with 7 and 8.    

3. All about a Joker card:
A Joker is considered as the most important card in a rummy game, never discard it. Focus on making the most of this card. Adjust the Joker card to a high-value sequence or complete a run with it. Remember that a Joker can’t be used in the natural run. 

4. Forming a sequence and discarding a card:
First things first, always arrange your cards properly. That’s an important tip to be remembered while playing rummy. Adjust your cards in a way that it becomes easy to decide which cards to keep or discard. Also, do not wait for the one card to complete your run. If there are other cards to help you form a new sequence, then use that opportunity to do so. Note that it’s never too late to keep aside your existing cards and form a new sequence. Don’t keep a card for too long and specifically the high-value point cards. Always discard the cards that cannot be used. 

5. Dealing with your opponent:
Each time you pick or discard a card, you give out clues to your opponent about your strategy. You can throw a card from your sequence to confuse your opponent. But this trick can backfire on you, so use it wisely.
