assistant
A standard deck of cards contains fifty-two cards. The cards are divided in to four equal suits of thirteen cards, with the suits being Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs and Spades. The thirteen cards have different values on them, typically starting with a two and including a card for each number up to ten. There are also cards which show either a Jack, a Queen or a King, which nominally represent a value of eleven, twelve and thirteen respectively. The final card is known as an Ace, which represents a value of one, though in many card games it is considered the highest value card. The Heart and Diamond suits are coloured red while the Club and Spade suits are coloured black.
