Melding your Cards in Classic Gin Rummy

The easiest way to meld in Classic Gin Rummy is to simply place a card in the meld area.

Note that if the computer knocks (only in the registered version, and only in certain game variations), this will also work equally well for melding into the computer's melds.

Melding with Auto-Meld

There are also two ways to Auto-Meld in Classic Gin Rummy. You can:

  1. Select "Auto-Meld" from the "Actions" menu (or press command-M)

  2. Command-click on the discard pile. When you place the cursor of the discard pile and hold down the command key, you'll notice that the cursor changes to a lightning bolt to indicate that you will Auto-Meld if you click there (it will only change to a lightning bolt if you can Auto-Meld at that point in the game)

Note that the computer will automatically perform an Auto-Meld for you if the computer goes out and you select a new game by:

  1. clicking on the draw pile, or
  2. selecting "New Game" from the "File" menu
