THE BOTTLE
MAKE TABLES 2/2/2, RATED, PRIVATE / PROTECTED. In each hand the first card turned up dictates the group of cards
that both players must make their first canasta from. If the card is in this group ( black three, 4, 5, or 6 ), then your
first canasta must be made in 4's, 5's or 6's. LIKEWISE, if card up is in range of 7 to 10, then your 1st canasta must be
in that range. The final range is from J to ACE. If the 1st card up is a wild or red 3, then you use the first card which
falls in one of the 3 ranges. All else is reg play.
