Declaring a Special Hand

Remembering that not all Special Hands are currently available, if you believe you have a Special Hand and wish to declare, click on the SPECIAL button on the lower left corner of the "table".  If you have a correct special hand, it will indicate that the game is over because you declared a special hand.  If you DO NOT have the correct cards, it will also advise you of this. 

Rarely are Special Hands THAT ARE CORRECT denied . . . more often than not, it is user error with the most common being that the user made a pairs hand with wild cards, but didn't have the complementing As and 7s, or they used mixed jokers. 

There is no need to send us a screen shot for dis-allowed Special Hands.

Are Special Hands Permitted in Duplicate Canasta?
