INTRODUCTION OF PROTER
Proter is a Rummy game popular in Sri Lanka. This game is played over the course of thirteen rounds. Each round has its own set of wild cards. During round one, Aces are wild. During round two, 2’s are wild. This continues until the thirteenth round when Kings are wild.
Proter is also unique in that in does not start with a discard pile, and if players wish to take the top card from the discard pile, they may must take the entire discard pile.
THE CARDS & THE DEAL
Proter is played with a standard 52 card deck. To decide who must deal first and keep score, have each player take a card from the deck. The player with the lowest score is the first dealer and scorekeeper.
The dealer should shuffle the cards thoroughly and deal six cards to each player. The remaining cards are placed face down in the center of the table as a draw pile. There is no discard pile formed.
MELDS
In Proter, there are two types of melds: sets and runs. Sets consist of three or four cards of the same rank. Runs consist of three or more cards of the same suit in sequential order.스포츠토토사이트
