There’s no standard for this, so play it how you and your opponent agree. This means the games will end up being longer if you don’t include the 25 bonus points. On the one hand, since everyone HAS to go Gin, it doesn’t feel like a bonus.īut on the other, hands will last longer and the deadwood scores are lower. It’s up to you to decide if you want to keep giving out the bonus points.
Players can only go Gin or Big Gin to go out.
With the Straight Gin variation, there is no knocking.
