Hand & FootCards/GamesHand & Foot is a variation of canasta and can be played with teams of 2 to 6 players. The objective is to get rid of all the cards from your 'Hand' and then 'Foot' by melding them. A Meld is a set of 3 - 7 cards of the same rank that are placed face-up. A Meld belongs to the team, and not any individual player. After a Meld of three or more cards starts, more cards can be added to it until there are seven cards in the pile. It then becomes a 'Closed Pile' or 'Book'. The team making the required number of books and has played all of the cards, wins the round. Four hands complete the game. The winner has the highest score. It’s easier to play than the description may indicate, so join and learn as you go.Adult 55+ Sept '22-Aug '23
