If the total value of the cards dealt in a card game is 6 or 7, it typically triggers certain rules or outcomes depending on the specific game you are playing. Here are a few possibilities:

1. Baccarat: In the game of Baccarat, if the total value of the cards dealt to either the player or the banker is 6 or 7, it usually results in a "stand" or "natural" situation. Here's what happens in each case:
- If the player's total is 6 or 7, the player stands, meaning they do not receive any additional cards.
- If the banker's total is 6 or 7, the banker stands, again meaning no additional cards are drawn.
- If both the player and the banker have the same total, it results in a tie, unless a specific rule allows for a third card to be drawn.
 
2. Blackjack: In Blackjack, if the total value of the cards dealt is 6 or 7, it depends on whether the player or the dealer has the 6 or 7:
- If the player has a total of 6 or 7, they have the option to stand or hit (receive an additional card) based on their strategy and the dealer's upcard.
- If the dealer has a total of 6 or 7, it may depend on the specific rules of the game. Some variations allow the dealer to stand on a 6 or 7, while others require the dealer to hit until they reach a specific total, such as 17 or higher.

3. Poker: In most forms of poker, the total value of the cards dealt does not have a specific impact on the game. The value of the individual cards or the poker hand they create is more relevant during gameplay. However, the total value of the cards dealt can impact the probability of certain hands being possible.

It's important to note that different variations and rule sets of card games may have specific rules or outcomes for when the total value of the cards dealt is 6 or 7. The examples above are general guidelines, and it's best to refer to the specific rules of the game you are playing to determine the exact outcome.
 
If the player's hand has a total value of 6 or 7: The player will typically stand (not draw any more cards) in most cases, regardless of the banker's hand.

If the banker's hand has a total value of 6 or 7: The banker will also usually stand if the player's hand stands (does not draw any more cards). However, if the player's hand drew a third card, the rules become more complex and depend on specific conditions.
