1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,259
We're going to be playing Chincho, and in order to play the most common variant of the game, you'll have to own a deck of Spanish cards.

2
00:00:07,879 --> 00:00:14,580
Now, out of this deck, you may substitute any cards valid at 8 and 9 points, and also be joked.

3
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:17,940
The objective of the game is to combine 6 total cards.

4
00:00:18,399 --> 00:00:28,760
Now, this can be done either by combining a series of consecutive cards of the same suit, or a series of same-valued cards of different suits.

5
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,759
These combinations have to be at least three cards long.

6
00:00:32,759 --> 00:00:34,759
The card distribution goes like this.

7
00:00:34,759 --> 00:00:36,759
Each player must take a card.

8
00:00:36,759 --> 00:00:43,100
We reveal both values of the cards.

9
00:00:43,100 --> 00:00:50,100
The player with the highest value card, in this case my opponent, is called Hand.

10
00:00:50,100 --> 00:00:57,100
The person to the left, Hand, is the one who will shuffle out the cards.

11
00:00:57,100 --> 00:01:06,099
And now my opponent can begin playing, but only after I've placed this card marking the beginning of the pile.

12
00:01:06,099 --> 00:01:20,099
The cycle of the game goes like this. Once a player reaches his turn, he must take a card from the stack and choose one of his cards to place on top of the pile.

13
00:01:20,099 --> 00:01:25,099
This can be, as in this example, the card that he's gotten.

14
00:01:25,099 --> 00:01:34,420
Now, if he wanted to close off the round, he would take one of these cards and then

15
00:01:34,420 --> 00:01:37,900
place it upside down on top of the pile.

16
00:01:37,900 --> 00:01:40,939
And now the counting process can begin.

17
00:01:40,939 --> 00:01:47,620
Once our rounds have been closed and both hands are revealed, we can choose a spare

18
00:01:47,620 --> 00:01:54,420
card from the opponent to extend an already existing combination of our own.

19
00:01:54,420 --> 00:02:00,099
counting process can begin. This is the deciding factor of the game as the goal is to not reach

20
00:02:00,099 --> 00:02:05,340
a certain number after a series of rounds. Let's imagine the example of the number being

21
00:02:05,340 --> 00:02:16,580
100. Now, we've got to learn the rules of counting, summing and subtracting. Now, if

22
00:02:16,580 --> 00:02:23,219
a combination, which remember has to be at least 3 cards long, isn't a consecutive series

23
00:02:23,219 --> 00:02:30,759
of 7 cards of the same suit, then we don't do anything, we sum 0 points.

24
00:02:30,759 --> 00:02:36,039
Now if it's the previously mentioned example, we subtract 20 points from our score, and

25
00:02:36,039 --> 00:02:42,259
if we manage to combine all 7 cards in our hand, then we subtract 10 points.

26
00:02:42,259 --> 00:02:50,259
Now in this example we have a character in the card.

27
00:02:50,259 --> 00:02:59,539
Now, the value is 10, but since it is a character and all character cards are valued at 10, we sum 10 points to our score.

28
00:03:00,259 --> 00:03:09,360
Now, in this case, if my opponent had a card valued at 2, he will sum 2 points to his score.

29
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,840
And after a series of rounds, a winner will do rise.
