This is one of the quickest variants of rummy. But regardless of how fast the games can be, Points Rummy requires quick thinking from all the players. As the name suggests, the game is played for points. All players will try to arrange their cards into sequences and sets. The goal is to reach 0 points, which only happens when a player makes a valid declaration.

On Edopgames.com, there is a pre-decided value assigned to every point that’s in play during the game. As a player, you can choose to either join a 2-player table or a 6-player table. There are free rummy games and practice games that you can choose from. You can also Add Cash and play cash games. You can choose cash games where the predetermined value is ₹0.05 and it can go all the way to ₹500 for a 2-player game. For a 6-player game, the predetermined value ranges from ₹0.05 to ₹125.

Imagine you have joined a 2-player game where the predetermined value for every point is ₹1. The prize pool for this game will be ₹160. If you end up winning the game, then the prize money will be the value of all the ungrouped cards that your opponent has. Edopgames.com will get a small commission from the Buy-In.

Edopgames.com offers three sub-variants of Pool Rummy. They are called: 61 Pool, 101 Pool, and 201 Pool. There is a fixed entry fee to play the game. This becomes part of the prize pool. The first person to make a valid declaration during each deal will be the winner of that round. They will receive 0 points. Those who lose a particular round will carry the number of points they accumulated to the next round. Players get eliminated if they reach the maximum number of points on the table. So, if one is playing 201 Pool rummy, then players who get 201 points or above will be automatically eliminated. The objective is to score the least amount of points at the end of the game. So, the person who wins the entire game will also be the one who has the least number of points.

Even if you have been eliminated from the game, there is a possibility you can rejoin the game. However, you will have to meet certain criteria for it to happen. Do note that these rules are in play only for the Edopgames.com platform. They are: The fixed entry fee for the table should be less than ₹2,000. In 61 Pool, the highest score of the remaining players shouldn’t exceed 44 points. In 101 Pool, the highest score held by the remaining players should be 79 points or less. While playing 201 Pool, the highest score held by the remaining players should be no higher than 174 points.

The prize pool depends on the Buy-In. So, if the Buy-In is ₹25, then the prize pool for a 6-player game will be ₹150. This is the kind of format you will enjoy if you want to spend a lot of time strategising toward an exciting win.
