Discard
A Discard is disposing of 1 card of each hand of a player in every round.
The Discard indicates the end of the move of the player who discarded.
The discarded cards are gathered and mixed in case the
Stock Deck is empty.
In each round the player can take the card which the previous player discarded instead of taking a card from the
Stock.
The discarded cards have a lot of meaning. In a 3 players and up games the players must pay good attention to the discarded cards, because if the same player needs the discarded card in order to complete a series, it might be that the same card will not be played with again until the end of the game. If the
Discard pile will not mix again the player who needs the previously discarded card will have to change his tactic and try and create other series who do not require that same card.
