Holi marks the victory of the good over the evil is celebrated by sharing happiness with fellow citizens. One other reason for the festival is to thank nature for a good harvest.

The celebrations start with Holika Dahan on the day before the night of Holi. During then, rituals are performed before the bonfire. It is believed that the inner evil of the individual is destroyed. The next day morning, colours splashed on people using balloons and guns. In the regions of Assam and West Bengal, the festival is called Basanta Utsav.

Even though the celebration is different across the country, the theme of the festival is the same.

The most common rummy variant people play in both online and offline platforms is the 13-card Indian Rummy. The player must form sequences and sets to declare the game. The Ace card is considered the most powerful in the entire card deck as there are several ways that the card can be used. Thus the player on the table must be cautious and clever in using the Ace cards. There are four ace cards in a 52 card deck ( one from each suit, including heart, diamond, club, and spade ).

The ace card can be used as both a low value and a high-value card. However, the value of the card is 10. The card is considered a key card as the card has a higher probability of making sequences and sets. For example, the Ace card can complete the sequence A, 2, 3 and at the same time complete A, K, Q. Thus, the ace card is important in setting winning strategies in rummy games.

Double benefit card

The ace card is the only card that can help one arrange a sequence with 2, 3, 4 and also with K, Q, J. The highlighted benefit of both the sequences is that Ace is either the first or the last card of the sequence. When a player has 2,3, or K, Q, the individual can complete the sequence with four or J; hence the mandatory need for Ace is eliminated.

Higher chances of Ace discard

A common practice is that players tend to discard high-value cards in order to reduce the points in hand. The ace card is one among those face cards. Hence the probability of the Ace being discarded is comparably high. When a person holds 2,3 or Q, K, the probability of completing the sequence is better. Even when you pick an ace card, your opponents will get confused whether you have 2,3 or K, Q combination cards.

Same as Joker cards, Ace cards can also decide the winner of a game. The chances of creating a sequence or set are better with ace cards. Now download the mobile rummy app and kick start your journey!
