frustration card game

[crisj...@hotmail.com]

Hi, I am trying to find the rules to a card game calledd frustration.
There are 20 combinations you have to work through and you play only
one hand at a time. For example one of the levels is a straight and 5
of a kind.Can anyone help please.

As far as I know, this is a version of Contract Rummy in which you are
not allowed to move on to the next contract until you have completed
your current contract. So on any given deal, different players will be
trying for different contracts. Normally the winner will be the first
player who completes the last contract; scores for unplayed cards during
the game are used as a tie break if two or more players complete all the
contracts.

Like most traditional games, this one has many variations. There are
many different versions of the sequence of contracts, so it's not really
possible to guess what the specific 20 contracts would have been in the
version you are looking for.
