+DESCRIPTION
+.br
+.in 8
+bj\b\b__
+is a serious attempt at
+simulating the dealer
+in the game of black jack (or twenty-one)
+as might be found in Reno.
+The following rules apply:
+.sp
+.in +3
+The bet is $2 every hand.
+.sp
+A player 'natural' (black jack) pays $3.
+A dealer natural loses $2.
+Both dealer and player naturals
+is a 'push' (no money exchange).
+.sp
+If the dealer has an ace up,
+the player is allowed to make an 'insurance'
+bet against the chance of a dealer natural.
+If this bet is not taken, play resumes as normal.
+If the bet is taken, it is a side bet
+where the player wins $2 if the dealer has
+a natural and loses $1 if the dealer does not.
+.sp
+If the player is dealt two cards
+of the same value, he is allowed to
+'double'.
+He is allowed to play two
+hands, each with one of these cards.
+(The bet is doubled also; $2 on each hand.)
+.sp
+If a dealt hand
+has a total of ten or eleven,
+the player may 'double down'.
+He may double the bet ($2 to $4)
+and receive exactly one more card on that hand.
+.sp
+Under normal play,
+the player may 'hit' (draw a card)
+as long as his total is not over twenty-one.
+If the player 'busts' (goes over twenty-one),
+the dealer wins the bet.
+.sp
+When the player 'stands' (decides not to hit),
+the dealer hits until he attains
+a total of seventeen or more.
+If the dealer busts, the player wins the bet.
+.sp
+If both player and dealer stand,
+the one with the largest total wins.
+A tie is a push.
+.sp
+.in -3
+The machine deals and keeps score.
+The following questions will be asked at
+appropriate times.
+Each question is
+answered by y\b_ followed by a new line for 'yes',
+or just new line for 'no'.
+.sp
+?              (means, "do you want a hit?")
+.br
+Insurance?
+.br
+Double down?
+.sp
+Every time the deck is shuffled,
+the dealer so states and the 'action' (total bet)
+and 'standing' (total won or loss)
+is printed.
+To exit, hit the interrupt key (DEL)
+and the action and standing will be printed.
