An ace is a card that has the rank of one (1). It is the highest card in the deck and is used as a wild card. When it is played, it can replace any other card in the deck, including a ten (10), which makes it the best possible hand.
The value of an ace is always ten (10). In traditional blackjack, an ace can also be used as a “soft 17”, which means that it can be counted as a two (2) and increase the player’s total bet by two (2).
