Each player is dealt a certain number of cards at the start of the game, usually seven, and the remaining cards are arranged in a draw pile. In order to determine which cardst satta kings to keep & which to discard, players must choose between drawing from the pile & selecting the top card from the discard pile. Until one player successfully melds every card in their hand, the game goes on. At that point, a scoring round is initiated, during which the remaining unmelded cards in each player's hand are used to determine points.
