XP Poker brings you the fun and excitment of Gin Rummy tournaments.These are real Gin Rummy tournaments online. Gin Rummy games online are generally played by two players, each receiving ten cards. The popularity of gin is probably due to the fact that the game is very easy to learn and it is a fairly fast-paced game as well. The earliest form of the game (rummy) can be also traced back to the mid-19-th century Mexican game of Conquian. Conquian was a simpler win-or-lose game played for a fixed stake. The best thing that Elwood Baker invented to make gin what it is now, is to refine the scoring system, making it much more interesting to play for money.

The object of the game is to arrange as many as possible of the ten cards in your hand into sets. There are two kinds of sets: Sequences and Groups.
A sequence consists of three or more cards of the same suit in consecutive order, such as 4, 5, 6 or 8, 9, 10, J.
A group is three or four cards of the same rank, such as 7, 7, 7.
A card can belong to only one set at a time - you cannot use the same card as part of both a group and a sequence.
