BlackJack
Has anyone ever made a Blackjack game? Had a question... How do you handle an Ace in computer blackjack. What sort of logic do you put in so the program knows whether to use 1 or 11? Whats the best way? Also, is there a max that the dealer is allowed to draw (say he draws a 2, 2, 2, 2, 4, 4, etc. (not yet reaching 17 or 21).
The ace part shouldn't be too bad. Start by counting the A as 11. If the player/dealer busts, subtract 10 and just count the A as a 1.
Dealer card max is a personal choice. Some casinos will give the player a bonus if they hit a 5 card hand. Never heard of anything like that for the dealer.

The standard practice in a casino is that a dealer will "draw 16", that is, they will draw (twist, hit, whatever you call it) if they have 16 or less on show. They hold (stick, stay) on 17 or above. This is regardless of what players may hold or whether the dealer will win. In blackjack, there is no bonus, penalty or limit on the number of cards drawn.
