Regular play goes like this...each player draws two matchsticks. If a match is made, they are put aside for that players score. Player goes again till no match is made. Next player does the same. When all matchsticks are gone, the player with the most matchsticks is the winner. Variations are "Go Fishing", "Five Card Stud", "Wild Card Poker", "Rummy", "Solitaire", and "Poker".
