Indian rummy is the traditional style of playing this interesting card game. This form of rummy is played by Indians and without much change in the format, there are some modified rules which are easy to understand once one gets a knack of it. The British invasion in the country was one of the major reasons for the passion developed in the hearts of the Indian people for card games such as poker, bridge and rummy. Moreover this British era saw the opening of numerous casinos and clubs offering card games with the most popular being rummy. This eventually led to the formation of the Indian card game lovers society. The popularity of this game could be imagined with the huge crowd visits, people earning fortunes and some had to even sell their lands. The game was played for entertainment purposes too in villages where people used this game as an interesting way of passing time.

Indian rummy is similar to any other rummy game where a minimum of two players and a maximum of four players can play. Rummy was originally played with 10 cards each but this Indian form of rummy is played with 13 cards. Like all other ...
... rummy games, if one wants to win, he/she will have to get rid of his/her cards before the opponent gets rid of them. And this art of getting rid of cards is done through sets and runs. A set is a stack of similar cards of different suits while a run is a collection of different or adjacent cards of same suits. Now the twist that Indian form of rummy brings is that in order to win, one has to ensure that atleast one set or run is pure in nature out of two or three sets or two or three runs as the case may be. A set or a run is considered pure in nature only when it has no wild cards or jokers in it. Such a set or a run is mandatory and others can include wild cards in their formation. This is what makes it a nail biting finisher.

Playing rummy online has also started quite a trend in terms of popularity. Indian rummy online is played the same way one plays it in casinos or clubs. It further gives one the opportunity to socialize while playing an interesting card session of Indian rummy online and one gets to learn various tricks and tips that are exchanged during the card session. The Indian form of rummy with all its modifications can be an interesting card game session for those people too who are not aware of the Indian format but they should be thorough with the basic rules and conduct of the game of rummy.

Rummy has its own charm and is played all around the world with different local formats (slight modification in rules) in different countries.
