Your guide to Rummy Hand Checker

Keep the active rule in mind. Check a 13-card Indian Rummy hand for a valid declaration and see its grouping and penalty. Check the relevant controls before continuing. Take a moment to read the table. 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. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.
