Canasta Tournament Twist's - Page 2
On this page you will find some Tournament Special´s that I have been given and used over the years as a Host. Sometimes members do like doing a tourney with a twist to it and can be great fun to host and player's. Below you will find the rules on how to do the twist´s and what games you can use for the tour as some only work in a particular game or games. If you want a copy of all rules then just email me and I will email them to you.
