While rummy can be a fun game to play it is also a game that is challenging and can get quite intense sometimes. It is relatively easy to learn rummy, but if you want to ace it there are certain things that one certainly must not do while playing the game. Here’s a list of five mistakes that rummy players must avoid while playing the game.
In rummy, it’s not only your moves that count but your opponents’ as well. Keeping a watch on your competitor’s cards can be crucial information that could help you win. Being observant about the cards in the disposed pile and the cards that your opponent’s take from it will also help you decide upon the right moves to make.

Unlike other card games, holding a high-value card in rummy is not always an advantage. There is always a high risk of losing it big when you cannot use these cards to form a pure sequence. A good decision would be to discard them when you know you’re having a bad hand.
Even though having Jokers can get you the upper hand, it is not advisable for players to hold on to them. New rummy players make this mistake often and end up losing the game due to it.
Rummy is a game that requires one to make the best decision possible. Refusing to pass a bad hand is more likely to land you in the losing spot. Passing a hand at the start or even mid-way through the game will still cost you less than losing the game altogether. So, don’t be afraid to take that call if it’s required.
