They include Jennifer Gregorio, John Greer, Michael Jones, Shayne Lewis, Dave McManus, Rammy Meyerowitz, William Mihalic and Michael Oxner. I am grateful to the many people who have sent descriptions of different versions this game. Alternative names for the game include Lamsees, Lambz, Dummy Rummy, Dumb Dumb, Biddies, Beanie, Mexican Rummy, Cleveland Rummy, Canadian Gin, Crazy Gin, Ace to Ace, Montana 13, 13 Brasses, Nokomis and several others. Most of the descriptions I have seen come from North America, but it is also played in South Wales in the UK and maybe in other places. This game goes by a large number of different names, and the rules differ from place to place. Unlike 3-13 Rummy, in this game every deal is played with 7-card hands, and during the play the players can meld part of their hand and lay off cards on other players' melds. In the first deal Aces are wild, then Twos, Threes and so on, usually ending with the 13th deal in which Kings are wild. This Rummy game consists of series of deals each using a different wild card.
