What are the rules for setting up the game board in the sequence game?

To set up the game board in the Sequence game, players should place the game board in the center of the playing area. Each player or team selects a colored set of playing chips and places them nearby. The deck of playing cards should be shuffled and placed face down within reach of all players. Each player is then dealt a hand of cards, with the number of cards depending on the number of players. The game board should be oriented so that the corners are pointing towards the players.
