The player left with the odd queen loses the game. The player’s last card is then drawn by the next player leaving him/her with no cards. Play continues clockwise, with players continuing to draw from the player behind them.Ī player is safe from becoming the Old Maid when either (1) the player pairs all the cards in his/her hand, or (2) the player lays down a pair and only has one card left. If the card drawn does not create a pair, the card stays in the player’s hand. If the card drawn creates a pair, the matching cards are laid down. The player left of the dealer starts the game play by drawing a card from the player behind him/her. After all the players have removed their pairs, the game play begins.

Players look at their cards and place any pairs face down in front of them. The objective of the game is to pair up the cards in your hand, and avoid being the last player holding the odd queen. It is okay if some players have one more card than others.

Players are dealt one card at a time until all the cards have been dealt.
