April 20, 2004 Black Jack Game! Rules of Black Jack: *Object is to get 21. *Card values: -1 to 10 are as numbered. -Face cards are 10. -ACE is 1 or 11, depending on preference. *Dealer deals one card face down to players, starting on dealer's left. *"Black Jack" is when a player has an ACE and the JACK of Spades. *After the first card is dealt face-down, dealer places another card on top, face-up. *Players may now secretly look at their bottom card. If the dealer has 16, he must play another card face-up. If he has 17, he must "stay". *Going in the same direction from the dealer, if a player wishes to "hit", or get another card, the dealer gives the card face-up. The player may keep "hitting".If the player "stays", then you skip to the next player. *Value of hands: -"5-card" (5 cards adding up to 21 or less) -Black Jack (ACE and JACK of Spades) -any cards adding up to 21 -any cards adding up to 20 -any cards adding up to 19 -etc. *The dealer has the advantage at a table. For example, if a dealer has 20, and a player has 20 that's not "5-card", the dealer wins. Ideas: Programming notes: Problems: Solutions:
