Turn over the top card of the draw pile and place it face up next to the draw pile. This card is the first card in the discard pile. Players take turns drawing a card from either the draw pile or the top card of the discard pile. Players can then choose to discard a card from their hand onto the top of the discard pile.

If a player discards a card that could be added to an opponents' completed canasta the left hand opponent must not take the discard pile. (The discard of such a card is equivalent to the discard of a black three.) A player may not claim the bonus for going out concealed if he takes the discard pile.

Each player's turn involves the action of drawing a card from the deck or selecting one from the discard pile, followed by discarding a card to conclude their turn. Ending the Game: A player wins when they successfully form sets and sequences, and they declare their win by discarding their final card.

The object of the game is to be the first player to get rid of all your cards. Each player takes turns drawing and discarding cards, trying to create a sequence of cards from Ace to 10. The first player to complete their sequence and discard all their cards wins the game. A standard deck of 52 playing cards is used for Garbage.
