The player who ends up with this card is considered the loser of the game. The goal of Old Maid is to avoid being the last player with the “Old Maid” card.
The player left with the unmatchable card (the “Old Maid”) is the loser. The game continues until all pairs have been formed and discarded. If a player runs out of cards, they are out of the game. Players take turns drawing cards from the player to their right and forming pairs if possible. If the card they picked doesn’t match any of the players cards they are holding, they add the new card to their holding collection.
