Find your footing in Declaration Practice
Work at your own pace. Check whether a complete 13-card hand can satisfy every declaration requirement. Check the relevant controls before continuing. For a calm first round, focus on one decision. Start a 10-question session. Read the visible rule label and wild rank, if shown. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.
500 stored and rule-checked questions; ten questions per session. Questions can repeat across sessions. Practice is solo, with no rating, cash reward or account.
Practice beyond the first move
A clear plan starts with the current position. All cards need a non-overlapping grouping, at least two sequences and at least one pure sequence. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.
Understand the aim
Check whether a complete 13-card hand can satisfy every declaration requirement. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear. Before making a move, check the cards in view.
Start here and follow along
- Start a 10-question session. Read the visible rule label and wild rank, if shown.
- All cards need a non-overlapping grouping, at least two sequences and at least one pure sequence.
- Study the complete hand before answering. Choose Valid or Not valid.
- Read the explanation after submitting. Each question accepts one submitted answer.
- Continue to the tenth question for a session score; start another session for a new selection.
How to use the controls
Tap the answer buttons or selected card; the deadwood exercise uses a numeric input. Next question appears after an answer. Check the relevant controls before continuing. Take a moment to read the table.
Follow the example
Example hand: A♥ A♠ Q♣ Q♦ Joker 6♠ Q♥ 6♦ 8♦ 7♦ 7♠ A♣ Q♠. Wild rank 3. All thirteen cards can be split into legal non-overlapping melds, including two sequences and a pure sequence. Use another round to revisit a decision.
An important reminder
Keep the active rule in mind. Do not judge only the best three cards; every remaining card matters. Check the relevant controls before continuing.

How many questions are available?
This exercise contains 500 stored questions. A session selects ten without repeating within that session. Use the rule sheet as a reference. Check the relevant controls before continuing.

No. Read the explanation, then continue. Start another session to practise again. Begin with the objective. Use another round to revisit a decision.
Are the answers checked against the rules?

Will I always see new cards?
No. The bank is finite, so another session may include a previously played question. Take a moment to read the table. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear.
What does the score measure?
The score is the number of correct answers in this ten-question session. It is not a skill certificate or a prediction of match results. A clear plan starts with the current position. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.
