The essentials of playing Declaration Practice
A clear plan starts with the current position. Check whether a complete 13-card hand can satisfy every declaration requirement. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear. Begin with the objective. Start a 10-question session. Read the visible rule label and wild rank, if shown. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear.
500 stored and rule-checked questions; ten questions per session. Questions can repeat across sessions. Practice is solo, with no rating, cash reward or account.
An idea for your next attempt
Look at the complete hand before deciding. All cards need a non-overlapping grouping, at least two sequences and at least one pure sequence. Check the relevant controls before continuing.
What counts as success
Check whether a complete 13-card hand can satisfy every declaration requirement. Use another round to revisit a decision. For a calm first round, focus on one decision.
Follow these playing steps
- Start a 10-question session. Read the visible rule label and wild rank, if shown.
- All cards need a non-overlapping grouping, at least two sequences and at least one pure sequence.
- Study the complete hand before answering. Choose Valid or Not valid.
- Read the explanation after submitting. Each question accepts one submitted answer.
- Continue to the tenth question for a session score; start another session for a new selection.

See the idea in action
Example hand: Q♠ 7♦ 8♥ K♠ J♣ Q♥ 5♦ 7♥ 10♠ 8♦ 8♥ 9♦ 4♠. Wild rank 12. No full grouping meets the two-sequence and pure-sequence requirement. The penalty for this hand is 42 points. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.
Pay attention to this rule
For a calm first round, focus on one decision. Do not judge only the best three cards; every remaining card matters. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.

One pure run, another joker-assisted run and two complete sets can cover a valid 13-card hand. Look at the complete hand before deciding. Use another round to revisit a decision.
How many questions are available?
This exercise contains 500 stored questions. A session selects ten without repeating within that session. Use the rule sheet as a reference. Check the relevant controls before continuing.
Can I change a submitted answer?
No. Read the explanation, then continue. Start another session to practise again. Begin with the objective. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear.

What does the score measure?
The score is the number of correct answers in this ten-question session. It is not a skill certificate or a prediction of match results. Treat this as a chance to practise one rule. Check the relevant controls before continuing.
