Days 1–5: Vocabulary & Rules
Read the rulebook + our glossary. Nothing else — just know sequences, sets, jokers cold.
Days 6–12: Pure Sequence Drills
20 hands aiming only for early pure sequences. Ignore declaring fast — the goal is the mandatory meld.
Days 13–18: Clean Discards
Release 10-point cards early. Track hand values — aim under 40 unmelded by every third turn.
Days 19–23: Joker Economy
Apply the joker guide: never inside pure, one joker per meld max, 0-point when melded.
Days 24–27: Drop Discipline
Use drop rules: first drop cheap, second drop when pure is out of reach.
Days 28–30: Formats
Play Points → Pool 101 → Deals week one, and a pre-declare check every hand (declaration rules).
Your Daily Micro-Routine (15 min)
- 2 min: glossary flashcards (today's new terms).
- 10 min: free-practice hands (only current drill focus matters).
- 3 min: log 2 mistakes you made and one rule that changed your result.
Where Beginners Usually Stall
They learn rules, skip sequencing discipline, and rush to "win hands". The 30-Day roadmap deliberately flips that order — sequences → discards → jokers → drops → formats. Skill compounds faster this way, as covered in our strategy guide.
