- GAME INFORMATION
-
- The Help File included with the game will answer most questions you may
- have about different aspects of the game. If you do not read help files,
- then read the following guidelines for playing the game.
-
- Your cards will be dealt on the left side of the screen and the dealers' will be
- dealt to the right side.
- Before you can deal the cards you must make a bet.
- You must have chips to make a bet.
- So, buy your chips by clicking on the 'Buy Chips' button.
- Make a bet by clicking on the chip buttons.
- A click with the left mouse button will increment the bet
- by the amount indicated on the chip. A click with the right
- mouse button will decrement the bet. A click with the left or
- right mouse button on the Min and Max chip buttons will do the
- same thing.
- Select options in the Dialog Box.
- Click the 'Deal' button.
- 'Hit', 'Stand', 'Split', or 'Double' down, as the case would
- indicate.
- If you split, you will always be playing on the cards lowest on the
- screen.
- You may only double down for one card on the first two cards
- dealt to you.
- You cannot split a hand that has already been split.
- When you bust or stand, and have split, a sign will be displayed
- over the cards indicating so. When you see this sign, you will
- immediately be playing on the cards above the sign.
- When the hand is over, click on any of the chip buttons to clear
- the screen.
-
- If you do not understand some of these terms, read the help file included
- with the game.
