Play Blackjack with PHP

Zack Coburn writes "The latest Codewalkers PHP Coding Contest invites PHP programmers to compete by creating a PHP script that interfaces with a special PHP library to play the game of Blackjack. Judging will happen as follows: 'A number of random decks will be generated, for each random rules will be used. Each script will then play all these decks, so each script will play under exactly the same conditions. In the end, the sum of all the money gained will determine the winner. In case of a tie, the running time will be the tie-breaker.' Some of the sixteen prizes include Cerberus Encoder, PHPEd, Macromedia Studio MX, SourceGuardian Pro, and Zend Studio." Here's a hint: count cards. :)

Hey, I've been blacklisted at casinos for doing that, you insensitive clod!

Good Timing

Nice, post about this when there's only 3 days left to submit your scripts...

This is great!

Looking around the web, and in my inbox, I see a total lack of anything like an online casino. Now that everyone has been told how to do php blackjack, maybe someone will get off the ball and fill in this much-needed online niche! Way to go!
