Once the initial hands are dealt, the dealer places the remainder of the deck in the center of the table face down as the stock pile. However, if there are just two players in the game, then each player should receive 13 cards. The dealer starts by dealing one face-down card to each player, starting at the player to his left and continuing in a clockwise direction until each player (including himself) has seven cards.
Once the dealer is selected he then shuffles the deck and the player to the dealers immediate left cuts. For the next hand, and each one thereafter until the end of the game, the deal rotates clockwise from player to player around the table. For purposes of this draw the ace is considered low. The player whom draws the lowest card is the first dealer. To determine which player is the first dealer, each player should draw a card from the face down deck. It also has a value of 15 (negative score) when found to remain in a player's hand after another player goes out. If it is part of a high sequence (i.e, J,Q,K,A) or part of a meld of three or more Aces, it is worth 15 points. If the ace is part of a low sequence (i.e., A,2,3) melded to the table, it is worth one point. The value of an ace depends on how it is used. Numbered cards (2 through 10) are worth their numerical value. Jacks, Queens and Kings count 10 points each. For purposes of scoring each individual card has a specific point value.
