Gin Rummy
Gin Rummy is a 1909 two-player card game developed by Elwood T. Baker of the Knickerbocker Whist Club in New York; in the 1940s, Hollywood discovered the game and Jin Lumi quickly became widespread.

Origin.
The first is that it originated in Mexico around the 1890s from a game described as the Concan of R.F. The complete foil of Foster's book Poster was played with a 40-card Spanish deck and had melting dynamics.
But the gin rumi that we know today began in 1909. Gene Rumi seems to be the intersection of a game called Concician and another game called Rum or Knock Rumi, which dates back at least 1905. Baker, the teacher of another card game called Elwood T. Whist, is said to have adapted the game in Brooklyn, New York, in 1909.

The most popular and widely accepted suggestion for rum is that it evolved from the game 'Conquian', which originated in Spain or Mexico. It is believed that the Spanish invented it and it moved to the United States with Spanish immigrants. It is said to have spread throughout the United States during the 19th century.

Conquian
The connection of the Chinese, also known as the father of rum: The Conqueror is believed to have originated from an ancient Chinese game called Kanhu.

Why is it called rum?
The word 'rum' is believed to be derived from the British slang term 'rum', which means strange, unusual, strange, queer. It could have been the way the English first watched the game. Many people think it could also come from 'Rum Poker' because it is believed to be the ancestor of all rum games.

Goals.
The purpose of the game is to form a group of cards called "melds." They may form the same number of sets or the same number of consecutive sequences. Each player receives 10 cards at the start of the game. The cards in your hand that don't match are called deadwood.

How does Jin Rumi's score work?
Score. Each player calculates the total value of the mismatched card. If the knocker's count is low, the knocker scores the difference between the two counts. If the knocker does not start and the count is the same or the knocker's count is larger than the opponent, the knocker is undercut.
