The play continues until all players have passed in succession after the final play, and the player who played the last set leads next. Play continues until one player has played all of his tiles. Then each player pays chips to those players who performed better – that is, the player who went out will get paid by all other players, and the other players pay points to one another based on the difference in the number of tiles each held at the end of the hand. A game lasts five rounds, and the player at the end of the game with the most points wins.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"UBO CnC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":962811841,"sku":"962811841","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic2265158_lg.jpg?v=1578608961","url":"https:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/products\/lectio","provider":"vaibhavhospital","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
