Below is a list of things that one should know about a deck/pack of cards:
- There are 52 cards in a single pack of cards.
- The 52 cards are divided into four groups of 13 cards each.
- These groups of 13 cards each are known as Suits.
- There are 4 suits, two black and two red suits.
- The four suits are Spades, Hearts, Diamonds and Clubs.
- The Spades and Clubs are black suits and Hearts and Diamonds are Red Suits
- The 13 cards usually go in this order: Ace 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen and King.
- In some games, Ace is made the highest card (even higher than the King).
- There are also two jokers in each pack of cards, but these are used only in certain games. These jokers are also called as the printed jokers.
- The value of the Joker varies according to the game and its rules – it may be the wildcard, highest card or the lowest card.
