The objective of Face Up 21 Blackjack is for a player to come
as close to 21 without going over, while still having a higher number than the
dealer. Prior to receiving any cards, the player must place a wager. Once the
wager is made, the player is dealt two cards face up. The dealer is also dealt
two cards. If the total value of the players cards is closer to 21 than the
dealer, the player wins as much as he wagered. The player wins if the dealer
goes over 21.
