A practical guide to Rummy Hand Checker

Use the rule sheet as a reference. Check a 13-card Indian Rummy hand for a valid declaration and see its grouping and penalty. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer. Before making a move, check the cards in view. 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. Use another round to revisit a decision.
