Guam’s first-ever UNO Tournament, presented by KUAM, Carabao Brewing, and Docomo Pacific, is here!

Whether you’re a casual player or a reverse card master, this is your chance to stack up the fun and compete for awesome prizes.

Before you throw down your first card, check out the official rules and regulations below:

OBJECTIVE:

Be the first player to play all your cards.

STARTING THE GAME:

Each player is dealt 7 cards.

The remaining cards form a draw pile.

Flip the top card to start the discard pile (if it's an action card, follow standard UNO rules).

Turn Order:

Clockwise

Play a Card:

On your turn, play a card that matches the top of the discard pile by color or number/symbol, or play a Wild card.

If You Can’t Play:

Draw one card. If playable, you may play it immediately. Otherwise, your turn ends.

Call UNO:

When you have one card left, you must say "UNO!" before your next player starts their turn.

Failure to do so means drawing two penalty cards if another player catches you.

Winning a Game:

First player to play all cards wins that match and advances.

ACTION CARDS

Skip:

Next player loses their turn.

Reverse:

Reverses the direction of play.

Draw Two (+2):

Next player draws two cards and loses their turn. Can be stacked ONLY by another +2 card.

Wild:

Changes color to the players choosing. CAN NOT block +2 or +4 cards.

Wild Draw Four (+4):

Changes color to the players choosing AND the next players receives 4 cards from the draw pile.

Wild “Rule” Cards

Will be treated as a normal Wild card (changes color of the playing deck)

HOUSE RULES

Stacking MUST match: +2 on +2 or +4 on +4 cards.

No jump-in plays. (Wait for your turn.)

First player to win the game advances to the next round

Losing players are eliminated.

All decisions by the tournament host or referees are final.

Cheating or unsportsmanlike conduct = disqualification.

TIEBREAKERS

If a game reaches the 15-minute limit without a winner:

Each player totals the point value of cards left in hand.

The player with the lowest total advances.

If tied, play one sudden death round (first to empty their hand wins).

ELIMINATIONS

In this instance, we will determine brackets based on the amount of players present on each table.

EXAMPLE:

If there are 20 total players, there will be TWO tables of 10.

Round 1 will take the top five of each table (10 total)

Round 2 will take top three of each table (6 total)

Round 3 will take the top three of the semis table (three)

FINAL Round will be played between three players (ranking 1st to 3rd)
