La Escoba del 15 is a famous card game, played with a Spanish deck. It is originally from Spain and very popular in Latin America.
The object of the game is to be the first player to score 15 points through capturing cards. Points are scored in a variety of ways.
A traditional Spanish deck of 40 cards is used to play. At the start of each round the dealer will deal three cards to each player, face down. After all the players have been dealt cards, four board cards are dealt, face up, in the center of the table, and play commences.
Play commences with the person to the right of the dealer. Each player in turn attempts to match one card from their hand with one or more cards on the board to produce a total of 15.
When using a traditional deck, all cards are worth their face value except for the 10 sota (Jack or Page), 11 caballo (Horse) and the 12 rey (King), which are reduced in value to 8, 9 and 10, respectively. All cards matched, including the one from the player’s hand, are removed from the board and placed in a scoring pile beside the player. If the player is unable to make a total of 15, they must discard one of the cards from their hand, adding it to the available cards in the centre of the table. After either scoring a hand or discarding, the play then moves to the next player in counterclockwise fashion.
If the player can combine one card from his hand with all of the cards on the board to total 15, this player has scored an escoba, worth one additional point at the end of the round. Each escoba scored is noted by the player turning one card of their pile face up.
After each player has exhausted their hand, the dealer will then deal a fresh hand of three cards each just as in the beginning of the round. The last hand in any particular round is the one which exhausts the deck. At the end of this round, the last player to have taken cards from the board receives any remaining cards regardless of their value. After this, the round is scored, and the deal progresses to the next player on the left.
Points are determined at the end of each round. Players score points based on the following categories:
– Most cards: The player with the most cards in their score pile gets one point.
– Most coins: The player with the most oros (coins) gets one point.
– Most sevens: The player with the most sevens gets one point.
– Seven of coins: The player with the seven of coins gets one point.
Players also get one additional point for each escoba they have obtained.
