fault game is BLACK JACK. By pressing the
START key, the game begins. And the money

BLACK JACK is one of the most common
games in casinos. The rules for this game are
quite easy. The player wins as long as his/her
total score is greater than the dealer’s. How-
ever, the player loses the game when his/her
total score is over 21.
The values of the cards 2~10 are scored
according to their corresponding face val-
ues. As for the cards J, Q, K, their values are
all scored as 10. Finally, the value of the
ACE card can be scored either as 1 or 11
depending on the player’s preference.
After the bets are made, the dealer and
player are dealt two cards each on the first
deal. The dealer’s first card is covered. So,
the player can only see the dealer’s second
card. The following explains three condi-
tions which may then appear:

DOUBLE
When the total value of the player’s two
cards amounts to 11, (s)he may lay the bet
on one-more-card-dealt-only. However, the
player should lay the bet two times larger
than his/her present one. Such a bet is for
the player’s advantage, since (s)he is quite
likely to get the full score of 21 and win the
BLACK JACK game by holding a score of
11. As long as the total value of his/her
three cards is greater than that of the
dealer’s, the player wins the game and
gains the bet two times larger than
his/hers.
