Blackjack is a simple game where the player tries to
beat the dealer by getting a hand as close to 21 as possible without
going over. The dealer initially deals 2 cards to each player,
and then deals two cards to himself. One of the dealers cards
is dealt face up, the other is dealt face down. The player
then chooses to Hit, or Stand (in this game the player may also
choose to double or split). If the player busts (goes over 21)
the dealer collects his bet. If the player does not bust, the
dealer deals cards to himself until he has reached a total of 17, or
busted. If the dealer busts, and the player has not busted, or
the players hand totals higher than the dealers hand, the player is
paid out the amount of his bet. If the player has a total
lower than the dealer, the dealer collects his bet.
