- Swap a card in their hand for a card from the pile in the middle.
- Trade a card with another player without looking at what card they are choosing.
- When each player has had a turn, rearrange your cards if needed, then lay your cards down to show the greatest number you can make. The person with the biggest 3-digit number wins and takes all the cards.
- Continue to play until all cards have been played. The winner is the person with the most cards.
