If a player's score is too low, they may draw an additional card, but only one.
Three identical cards constitute a triplet.
If the dealer and the player possess triplets, their scores must be compared.
The payout for three of a kind is six times the stake, while a flush with higher points wins three times.
Two cards of the same suit with higher points earn a payout of double the stake.
A pair with a higher value also awards double.
Although this game originates from Yundian, the specific rules vary across different locales.
For instance, in some regions of Yundian, it is referred to as "Three Grains of Rice," while in others, it is called "Double Lotus."
Despite the varying names, the gameplay remains largely consistent.

I must admit, Joyce's abode boasted an impressive collection of valuables.
