• Understanding Your Hand

• As soon as you are dealt the cards, you need to
  start strategically planning your moves.
• Intrinsic calculation is required at this stage
  to determine your moves and the probable melds
  you can form. Even a slight miscalculation can
  cost you the deal or even the entire game.
• You can use the basics of probability here to
  estimate which cards will turn up in your favour,
  and which cards you wont require.
• Before you start playing cash games, make sure
  that you know each cards value and usage
  thoroughly so that you can calculate probability
  easily.

• Planning Your Moves

• Planning your moves well is as important in rummy
  as knowing your cards well.
• Other than using the appropriate strategy, having
  a calculative approach can prove to be a great
  deal beneficial, especially when playing against
  experienced players.
• While playing online rummy, pro rummy players use
  combinations to make sets/sequences, after
  calculating the probability of gettng a
  particular card for your planned moves.

The Discard Deck

• The discard deck is a handy tool to calculate and
  determine your opponents cards expertly. if you
  remain mindful of the cards in the discard pile,
  you will have a critical advantage over your
  opponents which may even turn the game in your
  favour.
• If you already know the importance of the discard
  deck, it means you have a calculative approach,
  and have a higher chance of winning the game.

Keeping A Tab On Your Opponents Move

• A deck of cards has equal black and red cards,
  and this fact alone can help you find out about
  your opponents hand, and you can plan out your
  moves accordingly.
• Suppose you have a lot of black cards, i.e. the
  spades and clubs, it means that your opponent has
  more of hearts and Diamonds, i.e. the red cards.
  In such a case, make sure not to discard any
  black cards during initial moves. This will force
  them to make sequences out of red cards only,
  thus limiting their moves.
• Likewise, if you have a lot of odd number cards,
  make sure to not eagerly discard them as your
  opponent has likely got more of even number cards
  and would need your cards to make a meld.

• Making The Best Use of Joker Card

• Most online rummy players dont understand
  the Importance of Joker Cards. In a game of
  rummy, you must know the probability of jokers
  being held by your opponent or those in the
  discard pile.
• Probability can be a good way to find out the
  whereabouts of jokers in the game. If youve got
  three jokers, for example, then you can very well
  assert that the rest might either be in the
  closed deck or with your opponent. If the game
  has just begun, then there are high chances of
  the joker being in the closed deck.

Conclusion

• Strategy and skills play a vital part in online
  rummy, but a calculative approach definitely adds
  a new spark to the game. And if both opponents
  play with equal competitiveness, the game becomes
  even more exciting. So, now that you know how
  important a calculative approach can be in an
  online Rummy Game, why dont you head on to the
  rummy tables, and start practicing right away?
