Rummy Hand Checker: learn through an example

Take a moment to read the table. Check a 13-card Indian Rummy hand for a valid declaration and see its grouping and penalty. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear. Begin with the objective. Enter 13 cards separated by spaces. Use A, 2–10, J, Q, K with S, H, C or D; use JK for a printed joker. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear.
