Description

Blkjak is a digital implementation of the card game Blackjack. The player starts with some virtual cash and must try to earn more. The house limit is $500 and the computer pays out 1.5 to 1 on a Blackjack hand. The player receives cards and must try to get as close to a card value of twenty one without going bust. The computer also receives cards, whoever gets closest wins the wager. The player can split his or her hand when having two identical cards, but does not recognize five-cards-and-under.
