It is, basically an auction game where players must decide whether they can earn more by buying or by selling" All my Diamonds is played with a regular deck of cards with the "10" out, making 48 cards. Cards are divided in sets, with each card belonging a "value" set and also to a "suit" set, each set has 12 cards and players must set collections of 10 cards in any set to win a hand.
