Rummy Hand Checker: how a round works

Look at the complete hand before deciding. 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. Keep the active rule in mind. 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. Check the relevant controls before continuing.

Rules match the Indian Rummy table on this site. This does not validate another app’s table settings.
