• [Dealer] Hello there! Would you like to play a game of Black Jack?

• [Dealer] What would you like to know?

• [Dealer] Black Jack is a card game in which the goal is to get 21, or as close to 21 points as possible, without going over 21.

• [Dealer] Before the game starts, the player must make a bet. Once the bet has been made, both the dealer and the player are dealt 2 cards each. Depending on what cards you have, you can choose to ^5533FF'stay'^000000, or you can choose to ^5533FF'pull'^000000.

• [Dealer] When you choose to 'stay', you are telling the dealer that you don't need anymore cards. This allows the dealer to pull if he/she wants to. In order to stay, you must have ^FF3355at least 13 points^000000. The dealer can only stay when he/she has^FF3355 17 points or more^000000.

• [Dealer] When you choose to 'pull', you are telling the dealer that you want another card. By pulling more cards you can increase your point total. As long has you have ^FF3355less than 21^000000 points you can pull a card from the deck. [Dealer] There are 3 ways to win and loose at Black Jack.

• [Dealer] 1.) At the end of a Black Jack round, if you have more points than the dealer you will win the round. Conversely if you have less points than the dealer you will loose.

• [Dealer] 2.) If you pull a card that makes your point total go over 21 you will automatically loose the round. This is called a ^5533FF'bust'^000000. If the dealer busts then you will win the round.

• [Dealer] 3.) If you have a point total of 21 with the first 2 cards, you will automatically win the round. This is called a ^5533FF'Black Jack'^000000 and happens when you get an 'Ace' and a '10 valued' card. If the dealer gets a Black Jack he/she will automatically win the round.

• [Dealer] 4.) Besides winning and loosing, you can tie with the dealer. If both you and the dealer have the same point total at the end of a round, this will result in a tie with no winner and no loss or gain in money.

• [Dealer] This is called a ^5533FF'push'^000000 with the dealer. This also applies to both you and the dealer having Black Jack at the same time. [Dealer] The 'Double Down' option allows you to double your current bet, but with the drawback that you will only be able to pull one additional card. This option is only available at the beginning of each round.

• [Dealer] An example of when doubling down is useful, is when your first 2 cards give you a point total of 11. You have a good chance of getting 21 or 20 with the next card that you draw. This would be a good hand to double down on. [Dealer] The 'Ace' card is a unique card in the game of Black Jack because it can have 2 values. An Ace can be counted as either 11 points, or just 1 point. For example if you had an Ace and a 4, that would give you either 15 or 5 points.

• [Dealer] If you decided to stay, the Ace would automatically be counted as 11 points to give you 15 points total.

• [Dealer] If you had decided to pull and received a 9, the ace would automatically be counted as 1 point to give you a total of 14 points. If the Ace was counted as 11 points, you would have a point total over 21 and would have lost.

• [Dealer] It is because of the flexibility you have with the 'Ace' that makes it the most powerful card in the game. [Dealer] Feel free to come back anytime
