Benny rules

[Tony Toon]

We've been reading about everybody's enthusiasm for the card game Benny and unfortunately having looked on many different sites we cant seem to find rules anywhere :confused3 :confused3 . Can anyone help? :)

Thanks,

Well, it really is best to be picked up while you are playing it!!

It's like Rummy, in the respect that you have to group your cards together like 4 x three's or the 1,2,3 of clubs. But in each round there is a 'Benny'. A bit like a wild card. It starts as an Ace then a 2 then a 3 and so on. The Benny can be any card you need it to be to make up your 'sequence' or group.
The game progresses like Rummy - pick up one card from the pile - then throw one away you don't need. The winner is the person who has no cards at the end. BUT everyone else must count up there cards and the scores for each round are added up. Face cards are 50 points and if you are holding a Benny that is 100 points (i think). All other cards are just the value on the card.
Now, there are little twists - but it's quite hard to describe!!!

I'll try and get back with more! :teeth:
