The decks of 52 cards that are used in rummy do not include wildcards (in some versions of Rummy game are used 4 jokers 2 by deck). And more specifically we mention that the aces can represent values of 1 or 11 depending on the combination of cards used. For example, if a player have A-2-3, the value of the Ace is 1. However if the combination is Q-k-A then the Ace has a value of 11.
