Deluxe Canasta Caliente Card Game - Official Version w/Rotating Tray Complete
Free shipping: ships within 12 business hours
In 1950, after sweeping north from South America, Canasta became the biggest card game craze ever. “Canasta” means basket in Spanish and the game was named for the little wicker basket that the first players used to hold their cards. This Edition features custom cards that not only celebrate the basket imagery of the original game, they also make the game easier to learn and more fun to play!

Rules for 4 Players:
Four players are teamed in partnerships. Partners sit opposite each other. The rules are only slightly different when 2, 3, 5 or 6 play. You’ll find these variations following the main rules.
How To Win:
Score points by laying down and adding to sets of cards of equal rank. 5,000 points wins and it usually takes a few hands to do so.
How To Play:
You are dealt a hand of 11 cards before each round of play. On each turn, you first draw a new card or—if you can—take the entire Prize pile (the discards). You place, face up on the table (meld from your hand), sets of cards to score points. Sets are three or more cards of the same rank, such as four Kings, six Fives or three Sevens. Sequences, like 5-6-7, are NOT permitted in Canasta. You may add to your sets during play. This is important because you’ll need at least one set of seven or more cards (called a Canasta) in order to go out. Wild cards can be substituted for cards you need in a meld and they can also be used to freeze the Prize pile (very important!). Bonus cards and Stop cards have special purposes. To end your turn, you always discard one card to the Prize pile. You end the hand (go out) by playing your last card. Your team will score points for each card melded and may also be entitled to bonuses (or penalties!). On a single winning hand, your team might score less than five hundred points, but your team could score in the thousands!
