Pusoy Dos is a Filipino climbing card game for four players, played with a standard 52-card deck — 13 cards each. The goal is to be the first to shed every card. Twos are high and threes low; equal ranks are broken by suit: ♠ > ♥ > ♣ > ♦. The holder of the 3♦ leads the first trick and the 3♦ must be included in that first play.
Play now — it's freeA standard 52-card deck is used (no jokers). Four players play individually, 13 cards each.
Ranks from high to low: 2, A, K, Q, J, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3. Between equal ranks the suit breaks the tie, highest first: ♠ (spades), ♥ (hearts), ♣ (clubs), ♦ (diamonds). The 2♠ is the strongest card in the game; the 3♦ is the weakest.
Whoever holds the 3♦ plays first in every deal. They may lead it as a single or as part of a combination (a pair, triple, or five-card hand containing the 3♦).
Play then proceeds clockwise. Each following player must beat the current play with a stronger combination of the SAME number of cards, or pass.
There are two separate channels. The small channel: singles, pairs, triples. The big channel: five-card hands. They never mix — a five-card hand answers only a five-card hand, a pair only a pair.
| Combination | Contents |
|---|---|
| Single | Any one card |
| Pair | Two cards of the same rank |
| Triple | Three cards of the same rank |
| Straight | Five consecutive ranks (mixed suits) |
| Flush | Five cards of one suit (not in sequence) |
| Full house | Three of a kind + one pair |
| Four of a kind | Four of a rank + any fifth card (the kicker is required) |
| Straight flush | Five consecutive cards of one suit |
There is no "two pair" in Pusoy Dos. Triples cannot carry extra cards. Four of a kind cannot be played by itself — it must be accompanied by a fifth card.
Straights: the ace may sit at either end — A-2-3-4-5 (lowest) or 10-J-Q-K-A (highest) — but never in the middle, so J-Q-K-A-2 and 3-2-A-K-Q are invalid.
Singles/pairs/triples: compare rank first; between equal-rank singles the higher suit wins.
Five-card hands: compare type first (any flush beats any straight, and so on). Within the same type: straights rank by top card (the top card's suit breaks ties); flushes rank by suit; full houses by the triple; four of a kinds by the quads; straight flushes by top card.
Passing is always voluntary — you may pass even when you could beat the play. A player who passed may play again when the next round starts.
When everyone else has passed, the round ends: the player who made the last play leads a fresh round with any legal play.
The first player to empty their hand wins the round. The remaining three are ranked by the number of cards left — fewer is better.
On this site chips are staked per placement: 1st +3× stake, 2nd +1× stake, 3rd −1× stake, 4th −3× stake. A session ends when a player collects 3 first-place finishes.
Don't waste your twos — save them to seize the lead in a critical round or to escape near the end.
Hold your five-card hands early; a strong flush or full house buys a whole round of control.
Plan around the 3♦: you must play it on the first trick, so decide early whether it goes out alone or inside a combination.
Watch opponents' card counts: when someone is down to two cards, stop conserving — beat strongly or shed your highest cards.

Traditionally four, each playing for themselves. On this site tables are four seats (bots fill empty seats after a short wait).
The 2♠ — 2 is the highest rank and ♠ the highest suit. The weakest is the 3♦.
The holder of the 3♦ — and the 3♦ must be part of that first play, alone or inside a combination.
Lowest to highest: straight, flush, full house, four of a kind (with a kicker), straight flush. A higher type beats everything below it.
No — it needs a fifth card (kicker). Four cards of the same rank by themselves are not a valid combination.
No. The ace may sit at either end — A-2-3-4-5 (lowest) or 10-J-Q-K-A (highest) — but not in the middle.
Be the first to empty your hand. The rest are ranked by remaining cards; here, chips are staked per placement (3/1/−1/−3 × stake).
