How to Know if your Cards Make a Set: Part 5

Hello! My name is Melissa Schenk and on behalf of expertvillage.com, today we’ve been discussing some basic tips for playing the game set. So hopefully now we’ve talked about what makes up a set, winning the game, how to play the game, all the rules and regulations. I want to be sure that you exactly know what a set is, so 2 more examples coming up. In this first example, these are not sets; I’ll give it away right away. Not sets. I want you to be able to identify why they are not or why they do not qualify as a set. So here’s our first example right up here. We have to go back and ask ourselves these questions once again. First off, we look at these cards and they have quite a bit in common, but they still are not a set. I’m giving it away to you there. First off, look at the symbols. Yes, indeed the symbols are all the same; they’re all the diamond. If you look at the number, yes; they too are all the same. There’s two to a card. If we go to the shading, of course, they are all different. You’ve go solids, stripes, outline, but the problem with this particular set of course is what? Well, that’s right, the color. The color; are they all different or all the same? You have to ask yourself that magic rule once again. If two are and one is not, then it is not a set. In this case, you’ve got two that red, one is not, it’s green. Therefore, it is not a set. To make that set, what would you have? Could you visualize what you would need? Well, one of these over here would need to be purple. So either this one here could be purple or the red one here could be purple, so you’ve go different colors. That would qualify that one as set.
