Canasta Clarifications on Freezing and Discard Rules
A Milwaukee correspondent asks about freezing the discard pack in Canasta. The pack is not frozen at the hand start and you may take the discard pile to make an initial meld. If you take on that turn you must lay down two natural cards matching the previous discard. After the initial meld, either partner may take with one matching card and one wild card following a turn after the meld. A truly frozen deck stays frozen until picked up. You may go out by taking a multi card discard or even a single card discard, except when you hold only one card in hand and the discard is also a single card.
