How to Play Sevens?

Shuffle a standard 52-card deck

Deal all cards evenly to the players

Start with the player who has the 7 of diamonds, or the agreed starting 7

Place the 7 of diamonds in the center

On each turn, play a card that connects to an existing card in the layout

Cards must be played in sequence by suit

For each suit, build upward from 7 to 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K, A

For each suit, build downward from 7 to 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, A

If you cannot play, pass

Continue taking turns until no one can play any more cards

The first player to get rid of all their cards wins

If playing with scoring, count remaining cards in each player’s hand after the round

Play multiple rounds if desired and total the scores
