Take 5 Card Game

Choose a card from your hand in secret, aiming to place it safely on the table. Reveal all chosen cards at once, then order them from lowest to highest. Place each revealed card into the row whose last card is lower and closest in value. Take a row if your card would be the sixth in that line, then start a new row with your card. Accumulate penalty points from taken rows and try to keep your total as low as possible. Plan ahead by tracking visible numbers, judging risk, and timing low or high cards to avoid heavy rows.
