Laying down melds as soon as they are finished may be tempting, but doing so too soon can give opponents a sneak peek at your strategy and enable them to modify their gameplay aall the gameccordingly. Hold off on melding until it is advantageous to you strategically, such as when you are ahead or when it throws off an opponent's plans. This strategy increases the likelihood that you will win while also keeping your opponents guessing. As important as paying attention to your own hand in rummy is paying close attention to your opponents.
