Discard high-value cards (Ace, King, Queen, Jack) if they don't fit into a sequence.
Keep a close watch on the cards your opponents pick from the open tray.
Use the Joker card wisely to complete tricky sequences or sets.
Don't wait for a specific card for too long; adapt your strategy based on your draws.
