== Description ==
Current standing: List of players, sorted by points
Your Cards: The player's hand cards sorted in ascending order
Table Cards: Four card stacks growing from right to left, showing the uppermost/highest card
Stack Points: For each table card stack it shows the sum of points of all cards on the stack

Use colored borders/numbers/stars to distinguish cards and for a nicer UI look.
A selected card and a selected stack should be displayed as bold text.

Highlight the player's score with colored text.
We need a better idea to display the current standings, as the original game was designed for up to ten players. A possible solution to this is displaying just the best N players.
