Scoring

Once the game has concluded, the scoring is simple. The pip counts for all tiles remaining in the other players hands are summed. This total is then added to the winning player's or winning team's score. The first player or team to obtain 200 or more points wins the match. The total is added regardless of whether the game was won or it was blocked or jammed, unless the jam results in all players or both teams holding the same number of points, in which case it is declared a tie with no one scoring any points.

If all scores are less than 200 points, the match continues by playing another game. A player from the losing team of the last completed game shuffles the tiles face down, each player draws a new hand, and the new game starts. The lead player is the person to the right of the previous lead player, unless the previous game was jammed and tied. In that case, the game is replayed with the same lead player starting off the new game as if the tie never occurred.
