is up for grabs, By ANYONE. You may MELD at any time but you may NOT take

POPSICKLE PU

Tables Set Draw 2, 2 Can Out, allow PU, allow wilds, No Timer, disable bots, points 5000
DO NOT touch the pile unless it is FROZEN. A Wild (JOKER or 2) FREEZES
a pile, a black 3 DOES NOT. A RED 3 at the beginning of a game FREEZES
the pile. So, the idea in this game is to keep throwing away all
your discards because no one can pick up the pile until it is FROZEN.
Once someone FREEZES it, you may then pick up the pile as in
regular Canasta. If the pile IS NOT FROZEN DO NOT pick it up,
it is a DQ.
