The first player on a team to initially play (open) must play a minimum number of points to open. I know that in Canasta, in order to open the levels are:

  • 50 points for scores up to 1495
  • 90 points for score up to 2995
  • 120 for scores 3000 and up.

Hand and Foot is related to Canasta, but has enough rules changes to be its own game!

Instead of playing to a point goal, you typically play four rounds. The points needed for your initial meld increase as the rounds are played.

  • Round 1: 50 points to open.
  • Round 2: 90 points to open.
  • Round 3: 120 points to open.
  • Round 4: 150 points to open.
