How to play Kitti
The deal
- Every hand is worth one point from each player, and the winner scores the lot. Everyone gets 9 cards from a standard 52-card deck, and the deal rotates each hand.
- Split your nine cards into three sets of three. Sets always play strongest first — the app orders them for you, so all that matters is how you group the cards.
- Once everyone has locked in, the dealer turns the sets over one round at a time. Since the deal rotates each hand, so does who reveals.
Set rankings (strongest first)
- Trial — three of a kind (A-A-A best).
- Pure run — three in a row, same suit. A-K-Q is best, then A-2-3, then K-Q-J down to 4-3-2.
- Run — three in a row, mixed suits (same order as pure runs).
- Flush — three of a suit, compared card by card from the top.
- Pair — higher pair wins; equal pairs compare the odd card.
- High card — compared card by card from the top.
- Suits never break ties — identical top sets mean that round is drawn and nobody wins it.
Winning the hand
- Each of the three rounds goes to the best set on the table.
- Win two rounds in a row (1st & 2nd, or 2nd & 3rd) and you score everything the hand is worth.
- Salaami! Sweep all three rounds and you score a bonus point from every opponent on top.
- If nobody wins two in a row, that's a kitti: nobody scores, the points carry over, and the next hand is worth that much more.
The session and final standings
- The scoreboard tracks every player's net points across all hands.
- The next hand is dealt once every player has confirmed the result, so nobody loses the scoresheet mid-read. Anyone can end the session instead.
- Ending the session returns any carried-over points equally — they came from every player — then shows the final standings: each player's place and net points.
