Combo Up
You begin with cards in hand and two open cards on the table; cards in hand are NEVER sorted, you take them up and fan them out after dealing! The starting player plays 1-3 adjacent cards of either the same or consecutive values from his hand, all others must bid higher: Solo < 2-straight < pair < 3-straight< triplet. If you cannot raise, you take up one of your two open cards and put it anywhere in your hand. Special cards are Wild Card, Stop to win the round instantly, Pick Up a card for all others, Pass Along a card, and Draw 3 for the person with the highest card or combo. If you cannot raise the bid or take up a reserve card, the heat ends immediately and you discard one of your tokens. You also discard a token if you are the only one in a round still holding cards. Whoever discards their third token, has lost the game, all others have won.
