Description

Butterfield Social & Recreational Club allows the player to partake in a virtual game of Black Jack. The player can set an amount of starting money and plays against the bank. Depending on the starting money the game cashes is a membership fee, which can get high depending on the amount of money the player enters. The remaining money determines the minimum bet. Casino rules such as insurance betting and splitting the cards don't apply in this simple rendition of the game. Cards are shuffled only when the deck is used up, so the player can try to count cards.
