The basic turn consists of drawing cards, making melds, and discarding cards. A player's turn starts by drawing the top card from the stock or taking the discard pile, subject to certain restrictions (see Taking the Discard Pile). Melds can be made or added to, at the player's discretion provided that they have already met the initial meld requirements. This is discussed more in the Melds section on the next page. At the end of every turn a player must discard one card but also keep at least one card in their hand if they are not able to go out (see Going Out).
