HAnd & foot explained
Hand and Foot is a popular meld-making card game played mainly in the United States. The game is based on drawing cards from a large deck, or “stock” and discarding them into a discard pile. Melds are also formed, and once a meld is played it is left on the table in a stack, known as a “book.”
samba explained
Samba is closely related to Canasta, but introduces a couple of variations that for some, make the game that much more enjoyable. For a start, both Groups and Sequences count, and you use three decks of cards.
Samba is usually played by four in two fixed-partnerships, but can be readily extended to 5, or even six players in three fixed-partnerships.
