To correct the ace issue, can you set the game to reduce the value of the drawn aces from 11 to 1 if the total exceeds 21? Would it be sort of a "If hand total equals 22 or greater, ace value equals 1, else ace value equals 11"? I know this isn't Python, but am I on or near the right track?

Hi Hayden,

Thanks for the bug reports. Yeah, I thought the dealer should stand on
17, but wasn't sure so I set it to 15. I'll correct that in v1.1. As
for not reducing the first ace that's something of a technical design
issue. I didn't want to make the code too hard for beginners so cut
corners.  Although, i should be able to correct that pretty easy.

Hi Thomas,

I just played, and three things strike me. Firstly, you do know that the
dealer hits 16 and stands on 17? Also, the aces seem to be fixed.the first one is eleven, all the rest are one, and the first one never converts. Also,
it never notes it when you bust, you just keep on hitting.



Best Regards,

Hayden
