FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | FEBRUARY 2025 67
Three Thirteen
Three Thirteen is a fun and fast-paced card game, played in 11 rounds. A
variation of Rummy, players meld runs and sets of at least three cards. The
first player to lay all cards down receives no points. Then the remaining
players lay down their cards, on either the first player's cards or their own.
Each round uses a progressive, new wild card, from 3 to kings. The lowest
score wins. Not a lot of rules to remember and it's quick and easy to learn.
Everyone is welcome and we will always have a learner's table, if needed.
We meet the first and third Tuesday of each month at 2 pm in The Lodge
Game Room. Everyone is welcome to join us. If you have questions or want
your name to be added to the group email list, contact Simone at simone@
bissada.net. ~ Simone Bissada
We are looking for players, substitute players, and people
who are interested in learning the game. I am happy to teach
anyone who wishes to learn to play Pan, either individually
or in a small group — your home or mine. Pan is a card
game, much on the order of Gin in some respects, that is
played with up to eight people at a table. It is played by both
men and women, so all are welcome. The game is played
during the day or in the evening in The Lodge or at a private
home. If you are interested, please contact Linda Mendelson
at (951) 941-9100 or email Goldtoy@earthlink.net, and I will
answer any questions you may have. As with all card games,
it is played with both skill and luck. ~ Linda Mendelson
Pan
Mah Jongg
Hello all! We are now playing Mah Jongg every Friday from 1 to 3 pm in
the RCN Main Room. I hope you can join us. The great part is that you do
not have to commit to every Friday. If you are interested in learning this
game, we arrange periodic lessons and have a table designated for new
players. If you have any questions or would like to arrange an introductory
lesson, contact Terry Hall at Terryhall005@gmail.com. ~ Terry Hall
