An often misunderstood (or misinterpreted) Gin rule regarding the 50th card

An often misunderstood (or misinterpreted) modern Gin rule regarding 50th card

The rule below is in accordance with modern gin rules as per www.ginrummytournaments.com The 2 last cards of the deck may not be taken. Both players have action on the 50th card -- they can use it in their hand or turn it over on the discard pile and knock. A player who takes the 50th card can either knock (with this card or otherwise) or let the opponent do the same. If nobody uses the 50th card for knocking, the hand ends with a draw.
