My World Wide Web Pages are
black for 48 hours to protest second-class treatment from the
US Government for free speech. Read about it at this WWW
page.
Note: This is a game for amusement only. There is no money
involved. You will be given $1000 of virtual-dollars to start with,
but this money is simply "play-money". Any wins or losses in this game
are simply for fun, and no real money is changing hands.
Game Rules:
- Dealer stands on soft 17.
- Split on any pair.
- Double on first two cards.
- You are not allowed to double when you get blackjack.
- If the dealer and the player have blackjack, it's a push (no winner or loser).
- Blackjack beats drawing to 21.
- There are 6 decks in use, and the dealer shuffles when less than
one deck remains in the shoe.
- Surrender means you fold and lose half your bet. It is only
allowed on the first two cards in the hand.
Preload Playing Card Bitmaps will send a
page with all 52 cards, so that subsequent play will proceed faster
(unless your web browser doesn't cache inline images). This operation
has to send you 52 GIFs, so it may take a few minutes.
More technical details are available here.
Long standing bugs fixed:
- The problem with payoffs for
hands which were split has been fixed, thanks to some good
user bug reports.
- If the dealer has blackjack, no more cards are dealt, and hands are evaluated immediately.
