What is a "bust card"?
A bust card refers to a card that causes a player’s hand to exceed the maximum allowed value in a card game, particularly in Blackjack. In Blackjack, the goal is to have a hand value as close to 21 as possible without going over. If a player’s total exceeds 21, the player "busts" and loses the round. A bust card is the card that pushes the total over the limit. For example, if a player has a hand totaling 19 and draws a 3, the hand becomes 22, and the player busts.
Example
