A connected series of five of the same colored chip either up or down, across or diagonally on the playing surface.
NOTE: The game must be played with the true color of chips facing up, white printed side facing down.
When a Sequence has been established, these chips must be turned over, exposing the white printed side of the chip. This indicates to all players that a Sequence has occurred and cannot be disturbed.
NOTE: There are printed chips in the four corners of the game mat. All players must use them as though their color marker chip is in the corner. When using a corner, only four of your marker chips are needed to complete a Sequence. More than one player may use the same corner as part of a Sequence.
OBJECT OF THE GAME:
For 2 players or 2 teams: One player or team must score TWO SEQUENCES before their opponents.
For 3 players or 3 teams: One player or team must score ONE SEQUENCE before their opponents.
PREPARATION:
Place the game mat on a flat surface with enough room around the game mat for placement of the draw deck of cards, marker chips and discards for each player.
For 2 players or 2 teams: Team players must be evenly divided into two teams. Team members must alternate their physical positions with opponents around the playing surface.
For 3 players or 3 teams: Team players must divide evenly into three teams. Team members must alternate their physical positions every third player around the playing surface.
Players cut cards and lowest card deals - Aces are high. The dealer should shuffle the cards and deal out the same number of cards to each player (see table below for proper number of cards to be dealt). Be sure all members of a team use the same color marker chips.
