## **The Goal of the Game**
Cards values:
- **Ace**: 1 or 11
- **Jack** , **Queen** , **King**: 10
- all the other cards: their value is their number
It was originally known as 21. The goal of the game is to beat the dealer's hand by scoring 21 or as close to 21 as you can get without going over. If the dealer scores closest to 21, you lose.
getting *[Ace]* and any other *[10-value_card]* is called a **blackjack**, that's where it's name comes from.
___
## **Game Concepts**
**1- Termonology**
- **Hit** - Take another card from the deck.
- **Stand** - Don't take another card, Dealer will take his turn.
- **Push** - No one wins, it's a tie.
**2- The Game Concept:**
- in my project, the player can hit as much as he wants until he busts or stands.
- once the player stands the dealer will take show all his cards and then take his turn.
- if the dealer has more points than the player, the dealer wins.
- if not he's forced to hit until he has more points than the player or loses by hitting over 21.
- getting a blackjack or scoring 21 automatically wins the game, for either player or dealer
- there's a rare calse of getting a blackjack and the dealer also has a blackjack, it's called a **push**
**3- Taking turns :**
- Each player and the dealer are gived 2 cards, from the start of the game.
- The dealer has 1 card hidden, and the player has 2 cards visible.
- The dealer covers the first card when the players Stands.
- The dealer has to play either by stading or hitting.
___
## **How The Game Works**
1. First you have to press the *Start Game* button to start.
2. getting a blackjack on start of the game automatically wins the game, then you are forced to Restart or Close the game.
4. to Hit cards you have to press the **Hit** button.
5. to stand you have to press the **Stand** button.
6. once the player stands the stand button will change to **Dealer Stand**.
7. And the dealer has to take his turn. by standing or hitting.
8. the dealer has his own hit button which is disabled until player stands.
9. wining the game is decided by the points of the player and the dealer or blackjacks.
10. losing the game is by going over 21.
11. msg box will appear if you win or lose.
 
12. **yes** will restart the game, **no** will close the game.
## **Project Guideline**
1. QT-Designer to Create **[GUI](BlackJack.ui)**
2. **[BlackJack.py](BlackJack.py)** a python script that contains the game
3. **Cards Deck** is insde **[Fonts](/fronts)** is a file modified to contain all the files above so that the game can be in 1 file project.
4. **[icon](/icon)** contains icons used in project
5. the cards are inserted in dictionaries, it's harder with all the cases the the game can be played.
