• India is a country known for diversity, and this
  fact makes it interesting to the tourists.
  Similarly, the Indian Rummy game is available at
  rummy websites in various formats, to maintain
  the enthusiasm of card buffs and never let
  drudgery get the better of them. Would like to
  know what these forms are and how they differ?
• The primary variations of the game are Points
  Rummy, Deals Rummy and Pool Rummy. Being the
  offspring of rummy, all of them are essentially
  about card melding. As such, the principal rules
  are more or less the same for all of them, but
  there is a difference in the ways they are played.

• It is also known as 80 Points Rummy and is played
  on 2 and 6 player tables. It is the most basic
  version and the most popular one too. As the name
  suggests, it is played for points.
• Points have a pre-decided value in rupees, which
  generally lies in the range of 10p per point to
  Rs 125 per point. A session of Points Rummy would
  take only a few minutes. It is liked by the
  beginners and experts alike.

• In this format, all the players collect or pool
  in money which is finally given to the winner.
  It further has two versions 101 and 201. The
  player, who reaches this value, is eliminated
  from the game.
• This is the winner, and receives the pool
  money. We can say that it is like playing Points
  Rummy multiple times, till all the players-
  except one, get knocked out as they touch 101 or
  201 points, depending on the version. The game
  continues for the longest duration and as such,
  entertainment and thrill also multiply.

• It is for those players who like to play for a
  fixed number of deals rummy. It is akin to
  playing Points Rummy for a pre decided number of
  times. There is a concept of chips and entry fee
  mostly ranges from Rs 25 to Rs 1500.
• An equal number of chips are allotted to each
  player in the beginning. When the deal is over,
  the losing player surrenders his chips to the
  winner. The player who collects the highest
  number of chips is the overall winner.

• Rummy, the card game of skills, has a number of
  variants. This ensures that you never get bored,
  as you can always switch from one version to
  another according to your mood. While Rummy Rules
  remain almost the same for all the different
  forms of the game, the fun quotient does vary.
• Points Rummy is the quickest, followed by Deals
  Rummy and finally Pool Rummy. If you are in a
  hurry or are a novice player, go for Points
  Rummy. For a little more extended enjoyment,
  Deals Rummy is advisable. And if you want
  prolonged adrenaline rush, Pool Rummy is your
  calling. Happy Playing!
