If you knock and have the lowest deadwood count, you win the point difference from all players. If you knock and rummy and all your cards are used in melds, you receive the point difference and a 25-point bonus from each player. If you knock and an opponent has the same amount of deadwood points, that player collects the point difference from the other players. If more than one opponent ties your deadwood score, they split the difference. If you knock and one or more opponents have less deadwood points, the opponent with the lowest score receives the point difference. Every player who has less deadwood points than you also receives a 10-point penalty from you. Before the first hand, the points for needed for the games played is determined.
