I checked the repositories for both 10.04 and 12.04 for a blackjack game
and did not see any. This seems strange. Anyone know of one that will
run on Ubuntu?


Thanks, Jim

When one person suffers from a delusion it is insanity. When many
people suffer from a delusion it is called religion.

GNU BG.



That led me to a backgammon game , but you gave me the GNU idea. So a
search on GNU blackjack popped up one written in python that serves my
needs just fine.


Thanks, Jim

Apologies Jim - I read your post whilst playing Backgammon myself and
saw words which I wanted to see! ENjoy your Blackjack, and if you ever
fancy a game of Backgammon, I'll happily take you on!

Sorry for the error.

No problem, you pointed me at the solution. I never would have thought
of GNU and I didn't just want to google blackjack game and have to wade
through all the gaming sites that would have popped up.


As to backgammon I'm afraid I've never played and I haven't played
blackjack in a long time either which is why I needed the game to practice.


Regards, JIm

And if you searched for GNU BJ, you never know, it might take you to
something not appropriate for kids. :-P

Sorry... before-my-coffee-humor.
