what do you mean by "help"? How are you planning to do it and what exactly have you done so far? We need more information in order to "help" you. And if on the off chance you mean "do this for me" when you say "help" you won't get it.

So tell us what you need help with, and we will surely provide.

well u just have a var that holdes how much money they curenly have, then u get input from the users about how much money they whont to bet. if it is more then what they have or an invaled number u ask the qeustion intill they put in vaild input. then once the game is done u add or take away money from the 1st money var deponding on the value of the input of how much to bet. so if they start with 1000:

var money:int:=1000
vet bet:int

put "put in $ to bet"
get bet

%put some error checking here
%put game here


%if they lose the game:
money := money - bet

%else if they win the game

money := money + bet

Ok here is my program can you please help me Set you the bet part

% BlackJack

var card : int
var input : string
var plays : string
var total : int
var dealer : int
var dcard : int

loop
total := Rand.Int (1, 10)
loop
put total :2
put "would you like to Hit or Stay? <H/S> "..
get input
if input = "H" or input = "h" then
card := Rand.Int (1, 10)
else
exit
end if
total := card + total
exit when total > 21
end loop
loop
dealer := Rand.Int (1, 11)
if dealer < 16 then
dcard := Rand.Int (1, 11)
dealer := dealer + dcard
end if
exit when dealer >= 16
end loop
put "The dealer has "
delay (500)
put dealer, "!"
put "You have "
delay (500)
put total, "!"
if total > 21 and dealer > 21 then
put "You and the dealer busted!"
elsif total > 21 then
put "You busted, dealer wins!"
elsif total = dealer then
put "You and the dealer tied!"
elsif total > dealer then
put "You win!"
elsif dealer > 21 then
put "The dealer busted, you win!"

is this wut ya want?
code:
% BlackJack

var card, total, dealer, dcard, bet, money : int
var input, plays : string
money := 1000

loop
    total := Rand.Int (1, 10)
    put "You have $", money, "."
    loop
        put "How much would you like to bet for this game? $" ..
        get bet
        exit when bet > 0 or bet <= money  %%%%so the user can only wutever he has
    end loop
    loop
        put total : 2
        put "would you like to Hit or Stay? <H/S> " ..
        get input
        if input = "H" or input = "h" then
            card := Rand.Int (1, 10)
        else
            exit
        end if
        total := card + total
        exit when total > 21
    end loop
    loop
        dealer := Rand.Int (1, 11)
        if dealer < 16 then
            dcard := Rand.Int (1, 11)
            dealer := dealer + dcard
        end if
        exit when dealer >= 16
    end loop
    put "The dealer has "
    delay (500)
    put dealer, "!"
    put "You have "
    delay (500)
    put total, "!"
    if total > 21 and dealer > 21 then
        put "You and the dealer busted!"
        money -= bet
    elsif total > 21 then
        put "You busted, dealer wins!"
        money -= bet
    elsif total = dealer then
        put "You and the dealer tied!"
    elsif total > dealer then
        put "You win!"
    elsif dealer > 21 then
        put "The dealer busted, you win!"
        money += bet
    else
        put "The dealer wins!"
        money -= bet

I'm assuming you need this for the graphical part. When you did the Rand.Int (1, 10), you are essentially getting a random card from Ace to 10. Now for the Jack, Queen, and King, just assign each the value of 11, 12, and 13. So Rand.Int (1, 13) would get a random card between Ace and King.

Now, using Rand.Int would not essentially be good for a complex blackjack game, like the real blackjack with every single rules. The best way of handling a blackjack game is to do string manipulation. Such that your "deck" is a long string, and you are cutting and appending on the string, "shuffling" the deck by rearranging substrings. It is a bit more complex, but it's easier to work if you want to implement every rules.

ok so If i want to do this right at the top would i do
jack:=11
queen:=12
king:=13
How would i put these values into the Rand.Int
