(1) Before you press the Knock button, please make sure that with a subsequent 1-card discard your remaining 10 cards have no more than 10 points in deadwood (the total card value of unmatched or unmelded cards)
For Oklahoma variation, instead of number 10, a card value of an initial upcard is taken. For the example,if the initial upcard was 8 of Spades, your total minimal value of unmelded cards at knocking should be 8 or less. In Oklahoma variation and in Gin Only variation, if the 1st upcard is Ace, than you can knock only with a pure gin hand
(2) After you press the Knock button, please make sure that you place the discarded Knock card NOT in the usual discard pile but on top of the closed deck of cards

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
